Beyond the Classroom

At Assisi Catholic College, learning is not limited to the classroom. Our holistic approach to education recognises that students flourish in diverse settings — whether they’re performing on stage, solving strategic challenges, or connecting through shared interests.

Our co-curricular program encourages students to explore their passions, uncover new talents, and grow in confidence. These experiences enrich personal development, strengthen social connections, and contribute to a vibrant and inclusive College community.

Cultural

Cultural pursuits are a valued part of life at Assisi. Students are encouraged to immerse themselves in the performing arts through our instrumental music program, drama opportunities, and the College musical — a much-anticipated event that brings our community together in a celebration of creativity and collaboration.

Whether playing in an ensemble, performing on stage, or working behind the scenes, students develop discipline, teamwork and artistic expression in a supportive environment.

Academic

Academic enrichment extends beyond the classroom through opportunities such as Debating and Public Speaking, where students can refine their communication skills, build confidence, and engage in critical thinking. These activities promote respectful dialogue, persuasive argumentation and self-expression, preparing students for success both at school and beyond.

Special Interest

Assisi students can also engage in a variety of special interest groups that cater to different skills and passions. Opportunities such as the Chess Club and other enrichment activities allow students to challenge themselves, think creatively, and connect with like-minded peers.

These groups nurture curiosity and provide space for students to grow beyond the traditional curriculum, offering meaningful ways to build friendships and develop a strong sense of identity and belonging.

Sport Opportunities

Assisi Catholic College proudly promotes health, wellbeing, and physical activity through a dynamic and inclusive sporting program. We encourage participation, foster school spirit, and support students in developing a lifelong love of movement.

Students can engage in a wide range of sports including Basketball, Netball, Oztag, and our high-performance Futsal Excelle​​​nce Program​. Our on-campus gym features state-of-the-art equipment to support fitness and conditioning across all year levels.

​Catholic Colleges Sport (CCS) Model

Our sport program is delivered through the Catholic Colleges Sport (CCS) model, a collaborative initiative involving Assisi, Aquinas, St Michael’s, and St Joseph’s Colleges. This model replaces traditional weekly competitions with six cluster days throughout the year, offering a mix of sporting and cultural/social justice activities.

Years 7–10 participate in a variety of activities on cluster days.

Years 11–12 are not required to attend school on these days.

This approach enhances student engagement and attendance by offering a broader range of meaningful experiences.​

Whether participating for enjoyment or striving for excellence, every student is supported to challenge themselves, grow in resilience, and take pride in their achievements.​
