Open Evening 024

20 September 2024

On Tuesday, St Ignatius College proudly opened its doors to welcome prospective students and their families for our annual Open Evening. The event was a wonderful opportunity for visitors to explore our school community and discover the wide range of academic and extracurricular opportunities available to students.

Throughout the evening, our staff provided engaging, interactive experiences across multiple departments. From live science experiments to creative arts showcases, each session was designed to give students a hands-on insight into life at St Ignatius College.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all who attended and contributed to making the event such a success. The enthusiasm of both students and families was truly inspiring, and we look forward to welcoming many of you as future members of our school community.

Our Year 8 Mandarin class went to Chinatown to explore, try authentic Chinese food and drink and apply the knowledge that they have learned in lessons in real life - recognizing the characters on the street signs and reading the menu in Chinese characters!
