Our North Melbourne campus participated in a powerful cultural art experience led by the Ngwala team for Reconciliation Week.
Young people and staff worked side by side to crush ochre, create paint and explore traditional symbol burning techniques, alongside conversations about symbolism and cultural history.
This collaborative artwork, now displayed in our front office, reflects shared learning, participation and the importance of creating space for First Nations knowledge and voices in our learning communities.

This Reconciliation Week, we’re celebrating culture, connection, and young voices.
KCC Spice Co. is a student led social enterprise created by our Koorie Cultural Community at our Geelong campus. Inspired by Country and created by young minds, each mix celebrates First Nations knowledge, creativity, and connection.
Inspired by Country and created by young minds, each blend tells a story:
🌶 Tex Mex Twist brings bold flavour with native spices
🍋 Lemon Pepperberry blends citrus brightness with a peppery kick
🌿 Dessert, Forest, Sea reflects the rich landscapes of Australia
These spices are more than flavour. They represent learning, cultural heritage and opportunity for ongoing commitment to learning together in a spirit of respect and reconciliation. Each packet has been designed and packed by our young people including the wood work.
These spice mixes raise funds for our young people’s projects while building real world skills and pride in culture.
Every purchase is a step toward reconciliation, supporting young creators and celebrating culture in action.
For more information on KCC Spice Co., or to buy some spices, visit our Geelong Campus.

Taste can be a powerful bridge between past and present.
This week, our Geelong campus brought culture to life through food, with a menu inspired by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ingredients and traditions.
For our young people, it was more than trying something new, it was about creating connection.
By creating opportunities to experience cultural foods, we open the door to healing, pride and
deeper understanding. 🌿

Today marks Eid, a culturally and spiritually significant day for many in our Saints College community.
We acknowledge and celebrate the cultural and faith identities of our staff and young people across all campuses. Inclusive education is central to who we are, and recognising days like today is one of the ways we build respectful, welcoming learning communities.
Eid Mubarak to all who are celebrating!

Today is National Sorry Day.
This year’s theme, From Sorry to Action, marks 29 years since the Bringing Them Home report was tabled and reminds us that acknowledgement without action is not enough. Many of the report’s recommendations remain unmet, and time is running out for Stolen Generations survivors to see justice.
At Saints College, this day holds deep significance. Many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people learn across our campuses, and we recognise our responsibility to move beyond words, through listening, truth telling and action that supports healing, dignity and belonging.
As we move into National Reconciliation Week, guided by the theme All In, we’re reminded that reconciliation is a shared journey, requiring commitment from all of us.
More to come later this week, as we share the meaningful ways our campuses are marking this important time.

In celebration of Education Week in Victoria, we are excited to showcase the new STEM and LEGO Ed elective for our junior and middle years at our Fitzroy North campus. 👷🧰
LEGO is an incredible educational tool to support STEM, cars and critical, thinking, social skills and collaboration.
Here’s how our students are engaging with the program:
✅ Middle years students are working on AI and Computer Science skills through building and coding Battle Bots. 🤖
✅ Junior years students are embedding key science skills through the LEGO Ed Science kits to support tangible, hands on application of physics, chemistry, biology and design technology.
LEGO Ed provides teachers with incredible curriculum resources for facilitating deep learning while having fun, building and connecting with each other through play.
We’re excited to see where this initiative takes our young innovators next!

On IDAHOBIT Day, we stand in solidarity with LGBTQIA+ young people, advocating for their dignity, safety, and rights within our community and beyond.
Unconditional positive regard and radical inclusion are two of our educational philosophies that reflect our commitment to inclusive and supportive education that goes beyond classroom learning.
We proudly celebrated IDAHOBIT Day across our 8 campuses... here’s a snippet from our Geelong and North Melbourne campuses.

🎤Saints Got Talent!
On Friday, young people from across our campuses came together at @kindredstudios for our inaugural Saints Got Talent. It was the first time we’ve gathered in an offsite studio space, creating a powerful opportunity for our young people to meet, connect and build relationships with peers from different campuses.
Music has a unique way of bringing people together. Throughout the day, young people bonded over a shared passion for creativity, supported one another, and found connection through a universal language. With staff alongside them offering encouragement, fostering connection and creating a safe, supportive environment, young people were able to prepare, collaborate and step confidently into the moment.
The performances were streamed across campuses during Edmund Rice Founders Day, allowing our whole community to come together and celebrate the talent, effort and commitment of the young people involved.
What stood out most was the courage on display: young people backing themselves, supporting one another, and showing up with authenticity and pride.
We are incredibly proud of what they achieved on the day and the way they embodied connection, participation and community. 💛

The Food Studies program at our Ballarat campus sits within the VPC and VCE Vocational Major, delivering hands-on, real-world learning through Work Related Skills and Personal Development Skills. Led by our educators, Emma and Kento, young people in Mocha class, plan meals, shop, cook, eat together and clean up as a team, building practical skills they will use beyond school.
Along the way, students develop literacy and numeracy by reading recipes, measuring ingredients, budgeting, and problem solving in real time. They also build confidence, communication, teamwork and independence in a safe, supportive environment.
Food becomes more than cooking. It becomes connection, culture, routine and belonging. For many young people, this space feels like family, and that sense of purpose shows in stronger engagement and attendance.

At our Ballarat and Bungaree campuses, we’re taking a practical step towards sustainability that supports both wellbeing and our environment. 💧🌱
Through our partnership with @centralhighlandswater, our young people have received 130 stainless steel water bottles as part of the Choose Tap Water program, encouraging filtered tap water over single-use plastic.
With water fountains available across our campuses, this initiative supports healthier choices throughout the day, reducing reliance on sugary drinks while cutting down plastic waste.
We’re grateful to community partners like @centralhighlandswater, whose collaboration helps make this work possible and supports our young people to play an active role in shaping the communities they belong to. 💚

Welcome back to Term 2! 💛
We look forward to welcoming our young people back on campus tomorrow. As we kick off the term, our Student Support Group meetings already underway, creating a safe space to listen, connect, and better understand the barriers our young people may be facing and how we can work together to overcome them.
This “Love Yourself” artwork from our Geelong campus says it perfectly... when young people feel safe, seen and supported, learning can grow 🌱
Looking forward to the term ahead!
#SaintsCollege #BlendED
From the team at Saints College, we wish everyone a safe and restful Easter break. ✨
