Presentation Evening 2024

We recently gathered to celebrate the amazing achievements of our students in Years 7 to 11 at Kolbe Catholic College.

At Kolbe, we are blessed with a community rich in diversity, creativity, and heart. Each student brings something uniquely their own, and together they contribute to a vibrant place of learning, determination, and personal excellence. Their accomplishments reflect our shared commitment that “Everyone Grows,” as well as the values of faith, courage, and compassion that guide us as a community.

Congratulations to all the students who received awards for 2025.
