Student Wellbeing and Safety Presentations

Yesterday, we were pleased to welcome a NSW Police Youth Engagement Officer to speak with our Year 7, 10 and 12 students about safety, wellbeing and making smart choices.

Topics included safe driving, peer pressure, traffic laws, personal boundaries, respect and how to respond to harassment and assault.

These age appropriate sessions were designed to help students understand their legal responsibilities, handle peer pressure and know where to turn for support whenever they need it.

A big thank you to the NSW Police Force for their ongoing support and for delivering such informative and engaging sessions for our students.

Lest we forget. 🌹
Today, students from Emmanuel attended Remembrance Day services across Ballina to honour those who served and sacrificed for our country.
Four primary students represented the College at Ballina RSL LifeCare Kokoda Village, where two of our bugle players performed "The Rouse". Three secondary students attended the service at Ballina RSL Memorial Park, including one who proudly wore his Air Force Cadets uniform.
We are proud of how respectfully they represented our College community.

Goodli Spotlight: Voices Making a Difference - Bart Walsh

There was plenty to reflect on as speaker, storyteller and coach Bart Walsh joined us on Wednesday 28 October for Goodli 2026: Echoes and Horizons at Emmanuel Anglican College.

An actor and resilience speaker, Bart is a former National Head Coach of Jetts Fitness Australia. His understanding of adversity comes from personal experience, including surviving cancer at 23, losing his firstborn son and living with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a degenerative condition affecting the nervous system.

These experiences underpin his approach to helping others navigate change and build resilience.

In his talk, The Advantage of Adversity, Bart drew on his own experiences to explore resilience, personal growth and how we respond when life takes an unexpected turn.

We value Bart’s contribution to a day centred on purpose, possibility and making a difference.
