Yesterday evening, our incoming 2024 Student Leadership Team hosted our annual Canterbury Christmas Movie & Carols Karaoke Night Fundraiser in the CEC.
Despite the poor weather (again - remember last year?!) our amazing families still came together in the true spirit of giving and Christmas - making our 'feel-good' event a success! ✨
Home Alone was the movie of the night and guests enjoyed BBQ dinner, popcorn, lolly bags and soft drinks.
The Christmas Karaoke Carols on stage were fun, but nobody is quitting their day job just yet to pursue a singing career.
We directly supported two charities that we have worked closely with throughout the years:
Orange Sky Australia provides a positive and supportive environment for people who are too often ignored or feel disconnected from their community.
They provide regular laundry and shower services for homeless people.
Our College community has strongly supported this organisation throughout 2023, and the funds raised at the event – via the gold coin entry donations, and food and drink sales, will further support this worthy cause.
Rosies: Friends On The Street is an organisation which aims to offer friendship and unconditional acceptance to those who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, or are experiencing social isolation.
So each College House brought different items to donate to the Rosies Appeal.
These were placed under the relevant Christmas Tree inside the Canterbury Events Centre.
Thank you to everyone who participated, donated, and shared in the festive joy.
Together, we've made a difference and brightened the lives of those who need it most. ❤️

End Of Year 6 Chapel Service | Event Wrap & Photos
End Of Year 6 Chapel Service | Event Wrap & Photos
Last Thursday, our Year 6 cohort made their way to our on-campus Chapel Of The Good Shepherd, to celebrate and give thanks for reaching a major milestone in their schooling journey at Canterbury College.
The service focused on what milestones were historically, and how reaching each milestone - although a journey in itself, is part of a much bigger journey.
Our students then looked at some of the 'stories' of our time that were presented in a trilogy style - Shrek, Cars, X-Men, The Godfather, Back to the Future and many more.
As our Year 6 cohort reach the end of their Junior School days, they appreciated this time of prayer to give thanks for the journey they have been on so far, and for courage into the future.
They also took some time to look around the Chapel, noting the recent changes that have taken place - like the addition of each House's patron's name and the Canterbury crest.
It was a great time of reflection and giving thanks to God, and it was wonderful hearing our Year 6 students singing and having fun in their spiritual home here at Canterbury.
Blessings,
Fr Dan Talbot
College Chaplain

New School Fee Payments: Direct Debit Platform Via Parent Lounge | Launches 2024
New School Fee Payments: Direct Debit Platform Via Parent Lounge | Launches 2024
Dear Parents and Carers,
At Canterbury we are always looking at ways to improve the services we provide to our community and our operational efficiency.
So we are pleased to introduce a new and better solution for paying school fees by direct debit starting in 2024.
We have implemented a secure, paperless direct debit system within the TASS Parent Lounge, which will manage all direct debit payments for families opting to use the 2 or 5 instalment options for each semester’s fees.
This new system provides a secure payment platform, allows families to manage and track their school payments from within the TASS Parent Lounge, and is a more cost-effective solution.
From 2024, all Canterbury families will have access to the 2 x payment instalments option via the Parent Lounge, after they have received their 2024 fee statement.
Families wanting the 5 x payment instalments option, will need to complete this ONLINE APPLICATION FORM.
System Advantages
- Flexibility – Parents can choose to pay via credit or debit card, bank account, or both.
- Please Note: Bank account or debit card deductions will not incur any additional charges.
- Convenience – Families can tailor a payment arrangement to suit their needs, as payments can now be made in 2 or 5 instalments each semester.
- Security – There is no need for families to share credit card details and this payment platform is 100% PCI DSS compliant.
- Clarity – Automated email advice keeps families aware of upcoming payment dates and amounts.
A preview of what this new direct debit platform will look like in 2024, including a step-by-step walk through, can be found by clicking this LINK HERE.
Canterbury recognises that these payment options may still not suit the budgets and income cycles of all families.
So Canterbury parents, or existing Edstart Plus users, who believe these fee payment arrangements will be incompatible with their family budget, should contact our Family Liaison Officer, Mrs Lisa Foster – T: 07 3299 0807 | E:
Yours sincerely,
Mr Johan Louw
Director of Business and Finance
Canterbury College
