A Message From Our Social Justice Captain Ruby Wandschneider…
United Nations Day at Canterbury College has become an annual highlight of the year, where we invite students to share cultural experiences which are significant to their families and heritage.
It’s an event which was created by our students and continues to rely upon the participation and enthusiasm of our wider Canterbury community.
United Nations Day is a wonderful way for our community to celebrate the multiculturalism of our school by sharing our experiences, music, singing, dance, traditions and… delicious dishes!
Date: Friday 14 June 2024 (Last School Day Term 2) with more event details to follow.
This year our Student Prefect team is adding a brand new inclusion – a Canterbury Cookbook!
Yes – we would love to create this special ‘keepsake’ that will showcase our cultural diversity.
So we are now asking families to send us their meaningful cultural dish recipes to publish in our first Canterbury Cookbook.
This cookbook will be on sale during our United Nations Day Festival and is a great way to share your cultural and family stories, and the food that brings your ‘clan’ together.
Recipe nominations are NOW OPEN!
So please email your recipe nominations, along with your family or cultural connection to the dish/es, and your prepared dish photos to –
Please ensure you use the UN Day Cookbook as your email subject line.
Recipe nominations are open to ALL student families from the ELC to Year 12.
Our College Prefects will then decide which family stories and recipes will be shared in our Canterbury Cookbook.

2024 Privacy Collection Notice For Parents & Guardians | Address Collection By The Australian Government - Dept of Education
2024 Privacy Collection Notice For Parents & Guardians | Address Collection By The Australian Government - Dept of Education
Collection Notice For School Parents & Guardians | 2024 Student Residential Address & Other Information.
The Australian Government Department of Education would like to notify you that we have requested for your child’s school to provide your residential address and other information.
Under the Australian Education Regulations 2023, the school is required to provide the department with the following information about each student at the school:
- names and residential addresses of the student’s parent(s) and/or guardian(s)
- student residential address (excluding student names)
- whether the student is a primary or secondary student (education level)
- whether the student is boarding or a day student (boarding status).
The school collects the above information by generating a unique and unidentifiable Student Reference Number (SRN) for each student record.
The school only uses the SRN for this collection.
The SRN cannot be used for any other purpose.
The number only indicates to the department that each record provided is for one student.
Collection Purpose
The Student Residential Address and Other Information Collection informs Australian Government school education policy and helps ensure funding for non-government schools is based on need.
The information collected is used to inform school funding calculations.
It is combined with Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data to calculate a non-government school community’s anticipated capacity to contribute to schooling costs.
In 2020, the department introduced a new measure of capacity to contribute: the Direct Measure of Income (DMI).
The DMI is based on the median income of non-government school students’ parents or guardians using this collection data.
What Do You Need To Do?
You are not required to do anything.
Your school is responsible for providing the department with the requested details; however, you can contact the school to update your family’s details.
For full information, please read the official PDF document HERE.
Thank you.

2024 Harmony Day | Thursday 21 March: Senior School Students Harmony Message Wall
2024 Harmony Day | Thursday 21 March: Senior School Students Harmony Message Wall
Today we celebrated Harmony Day, a day dedicated to celebrating cultural diversity, promoting inclusiveness, and fostering a sense of belonging among all Australians, regardless of their cultural or linguistic backgrounds.
This year, our Senior School students had the opportunity to share what they love about their culture, by reflecting on what makes their culture special.
Through conversations in Form Class, students wrote the thing they love most to add to our Harmony Day Wall.
Across our diverse community, common trends were seen in students’ responses around food, community, clothing and relationships.
We are blessed to have such a diverse community here at Canterbury College, and although we celebrate this in different ways each day, today was a great opportunity to pause and reflect on how special our community is.
