Students Thomas Larkin and Will Elliston with teacher Sue Kiernan.

This year has been a very positive one at De La Salle College, Malvern, with the return to onsite learning and lockdowns and remote learning behind us.

This year the college celebrated many annual events including academic achievements, co-curricular prowess, the return of incursions and excursions, community events and sporting carnivals.

The college also celebrated 110 years in February 2022.

The co-curricular life of the college continued to grow and develop this year.

The college entered into a partnership with One on One Football to enhance its Australian Rules program with ex-AFL coaches, a junior development squad and online professional learning for college coaches.

The High Performance Sports Program is evolving, with the first programs run for football, soccer and basketball.

Plans are well underway for the Agar Academy for young cricketers, a De La Salle swimming club and specialised athletics coaching.

The arts also expanded, with High School Musical staged in conjunction with Our Lady of the Sacred Heart after two years of planning and rehearsing.

The VCE drama students’ outstanding production of Almost, Maine was a highlight, as was the ACCent on Music concert at Hamer Hall.

The second musical collaboration with Siena College was a great success and the regular scheduling of many music concerts demonstrated the amazing quality of the college’s music program.

This year also saw the return of many house competitions, lunch time activities, music ensembles and major house events such as the athletics, swimming and cross country carnivals.

The college community was engaged through new events including Mothers’ Lunch, Parents’ Golf Day and Parent Network events which celebrate the important role that parents play in their child’s lives.

College reunions were also back with a number of important milestones celebrated and friendships rekindled.
