Bunbury Catholic College’s Marist campus will hold its annual Open Day for existing and prospective parents and families, in September.
Book a free tour of the College, either during school hours, or after school, on Wednesday 11 September 2019.
Places are limited. We look forward to welcoming you to our College.
On Friday 28 June, all students from the Marist campus battled it out on the 3.5km cross country track.
Fortunately for the students, it turned out to be a fine day with Valentine taking the win on 145 points.
This was followed by Marcellin on 128, McAuley on 126 and Xavier on 122.
The Panda award for participation also went to Valentine and McAuley on the day.
A big thank you goes out to all the teachers and students who helped put the day together and congratulations to all the students who participated in the event.
The top students from each campus and year group will compete next term for positions on the interschool cross country team.

Marcellin was victorious in the 2019 Mercy campus cross-country event, held on Wednesday 25 June.
Students again raced across the 2.6km course through the Leschenault Recreation Park, and there was plenty of effort shown despite challenging conditions that alternated between sun and rain.
Marcellin finished on 123 points, defeating Xavier (108), McAuley (103) and last year’s champion house Valentine (101).
Year 11 student Noah McAneny equalled the course record of 10 minutes and 52 seconds which he had set last year.

Bunbury Catholic College students, along with students from schools as far away as Manjimup and Bridgetown, Collie, Busselton and Margaret River plus the wider community, were at the Marist campus sports centre on Wednesday 12 June for the annual South West Careers Expo.
About 1600 visitors came through the doors and had the chance to speak to more than 40 exhibitors.
These included universities, residential colleges and other higher educational providers, some of the South West’s major employers from sectors including mining and local government and diverse exhibitors such as the Defence Force, drone pilot careers and Education USA.
Our student baristas also made coffees for the exhibitors throughout the morning.
Once again, the feedback about the Expo from all visitors and exhibitors was positive.
This is the 11th time we have hosted the Expo since its inception in 2009.
The Expo is growing every year and we thank everybody who was involved.
Year 12 students from both campuses dressed in their finest and danced the night away at their respective 2019 College balls.
For the first time, our Mercy campus held a standalone ball.
This took place at the Sanctuary Golf Resort on Saturday 9 February.
Marist students then had their time to shine on Saturday 16 February at the South West Italian Club.
The ‘paparazzi’ were in attendance at both events to photograph students as they entered along the red carpet.
In addition to subject awards, Bunbury Catholic College students were also acknowledged at Presentation Evening on Tuesday 27 November with a range of special awards.

Three more former students were inducted into the Bunbury Catholic College Hall of Distinction.
Tristan Clemons, Abbe May and Mike Smith were officially inducted during the College’s Presentation Evening on Tuesday November 27.
Tristan has combined the dual careers of biomedical researcher and international hockey player.
He completed a PhD in nanotechnology at the University of WA and aims to develop nanoparticles which could repair damage to the central nervous system and help with diseases such as cancer.
On the hockey field, Tristan represented the Australian men’s national team – the Kookaburras – in 51 matches.
Abbe has built a reputation in the Western Australian music scene as a talented singer and songwriter who is also committed to social causes she believes in.
Her musical CV is impressive – having been nominated for Best Female Artist at the 2013 ARIA awards.
She has also won countless West Australian Music Awards including best single, best album and best female vocalist.
Mike was the first person from country WA to become president of Surf Life Saving WA and held that role from 2002 until 2008.
Mike’s list of contributions and achievements within Surf Life Saving are enormous and include five years as president of the City of Bunbury club.
He has been made a life member of Surf Life Saving Australia and in 2011 received further national recognition when he received the prestigious Order of Australia medal.
This is the third time the College’s Ex-Students Association has inducted former students into the Hall of Distinction, which aims to celebrate the College’s links with its past.
The next induction is planned for 2020 and former students can be nominated by contacting the Association.
