Open Day 2025

The Catherine McAuley College Bendigo (CMCB) community displayed its strength and spirit at Open Day, extending hospitality to close to 300 families with a child commencing Year 7 in 2026. With beautiful weather, tours, stalls, activities, food and entertainment on offer, it was a day of celebration and excitement with over 800 visitors at the Coolock Campus.

Thank you to everyone who attended the Open Day and engaged with our community and the activities on offer. We thoroughly enjoyed meeting so many future Year 7s with their families.

We were very proud of the way our student tour guides led tours and engaged with families about learning and life at CMCB. Students also entertained the visitors with non-stop performances, helped with activities or helped cook delicious treats throughout the evening.

Our dedicated staff gave generously of their time as they welcomed our visitors with great hospitality and presented valuable information.

Thank you and congratulations to our students and staff involved in organising and presenting Open Day, creating a welcoming space and sharing your enthusiasm.

Enrolment for Year 7, 2026 is now open and applications close on Friday 9 May. It is pleasing to have received over fifty online applications since going live on Open Day.
