Gilroy Catholic College proudly acknowledges and congratulates our 2026 cohort who have successfully completed the Step Up Into Teaching program in partnership with Australian Catholic University (ACU), graduating last week. As part of this outstanding initiative, six of our Year 12 students completed two advanced university subjects toward a Bachelor of Teaching during their school holiday periods across Years 11 and 12. This remarkable achievement has earned them a conditional early entry offer into a teaching degree of their choice at ACU. The program demands dedication, attention to detail, and a strong commitment to collaboration, while also providing valuable insight into university life and the expectations of tertiary study. We are incredibly proud of their accomplishments and look forward to supporting these students as they take their next steps toward joining the inspiring and rewarding teaching profession.

Day 3 of Year 7 Camp Year 7 arrived back from camp weary but happy! After days filled with adventure, laughter, and new experiences, it’s safe to say memories were made that will last a lifetime. From outdoor challenges to late-night chats, this group showed resilience, teamwork, and plenty of spirit. Now it’s time for some well-earned rest… but we know they’ll be talking about camp for weeks to come!

Gilroy Catholic College Year 11 and 12 Visual Arts students recently attended an excursion to the Art Gallery of NSW, where they explored the ARTEXPRESS 2026 exhibition. This showcase features a curated selection of outstanding bodies of work developed for the art-making component of the 2025 HSC Visual Arts examination. During their visit, students were also fortunate to experience a tour of the Ron Mueck sculptural exhibition. Mueck’s work demonstrates an extraordinary command of sculptural and painting techniques, capturing human and animal forms with remarkable precision and lifelike detail. His pieces depict both ordinary and extraordinary moments, with a strong emphasis on body language and emotional expression.
