Parent Breakfast

Thank you to the parents and caregivers who joined us for the breakfast information session. We truly appreciate your time, involvement and commitment to supporting your young people as they navigate the many changes and transitions that come with school life. Your partnership plays an important role in helping students feel confident, connected and prepared, and we value the opportunity to work together in supporting their growth and wellbeing.  Thank you to our Counselling team for preparing and presenting these important sessions throughout the year.

Year 10 Social

Our Year 10 Social was a wonderful success and a joyful way to celebrate the end of the year. Students came together as a cohort, strengthening friendships and building a strong sense of community while enjoying a fun and memorable evening. We extend our sincere gratitude to the Year Level Leader Jess Baddeley and team whose planning, organisation and supervision made the event possible – their dedication ensured a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Headstart

Headstart provides students with a valuable opportunity not only to gain an early introduction to the subjects and topics they will explore in 2026, but also to meet new peers and broaden their friendship circles. By engaging in classes and activities together, students can begin forming connections, building confidence and feeling more prepared and supported as they move into the year ahead.

End of Year

As we approach the conclusion of the 2025 school year, it is with a profound sense of gratitude and reflection that we look back on the moments that have defined our time together at Kilbreda College. The tapestry of experiences we’ve shared, the growth we’ve witnessed and the collective spirit of our community have made this year truly remarkable.  Best wishes for a safe and enjoyable holiday season.
