Year 12 Farewell Assembly: Celebrating Achievements at St Edward’s College. On Thursday, 25 September, the St Edward’s College community gathered in the ERC for a heartfelt Farewell Assembly to honour the Year 12 graduating class of 2025. Staff, students, and families came together to celebrate not only the culmination of high school but also the remarkable achievements of these young men during their time at the College. The event was filled with nostalgia and pride as the College community celebrated the academic excellence and resilience of the Year 12 students. We honoured their outstanding achievements across a range of subjects, recognising both first and second place recipients. Towards the end of the assembly the major award recipients were announced including the College Dux. We are proud to announce Liam Best is the 2025 College Dux.  A huge congratulations to Liam and all the Award Recipients. After receiving a standing ovation from the College community, the College Leaders proceeded to the official tree planting ceremony, a long-standing College tradition, at the lower grounds of the College.  This fulfilled their final duty as St Edward’s students and marked their induction into the College Old Boys’ Union.

Investiture of College Captain, Vice-Captains and Prefects In a solemn and reverent Mass, presided over by Father Vince Casey, our College community gathered to celebrate one of the most significant moments of the school year – the Investiture of the College Captain, Vice-Captains and Prefects for 2025–2026. This moving occasion, filled with prayer, music, and reflection, honoured the young men entrusted with the responsibility of leadership within our College. As part of the ceremony, the prefect body for 2025–2026 was officially welcomed. Their leadership badges, a symbol of commitment and service, were blessed during the liturgy and then carefully pinned onto their blazers by one of their parents, a deeply touching gesture that reflected both family pride and the supportive partnership between home and College. At the conclusion of Mass, the announcement of the 2025–2026 College Captain and Vice-Captains was made to warm applause: College Captain – Thomas Perham Vice-Captain – Isaac McCudden Vice-Captain – Angus Stewart Alongside them, we also congratulate and celebrate our College Prefects, who will join the Captain and Vice-Captains in guiding their peers with integrity, generosity and vision: Ruben Borg Charlie Cranny Samuel Duffy Benjamin Geddes-Brown Cooper Harker Malcolm Hawkins Jonathan Lin Luke Nakagawa Coby Neilly Eden Pearson Isaac Plunkett Harrison Ryan Nate Saley The Mass was further enriched by the voices and talents of our students, whose hymns created a prayerful and uplifting atmosphere. These musical contributions, prepared with dedication under the guidance of our music staff, were nothing short of outstanding, reflecting many hours of practice and commitment. This investiture was not simply a ceremony, but a powerful reminder of the values of faith, service, and leadership that lie at the heart of our College. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Father Vince Casey, our staff, musicians, parents, and all who played a part in making this celebration so meaningful.   [embed]https://youtu.be/MqjsMpPH6vw[/embed]   [foogallery id="62010"]
