- SHEP SUCCESS! -
Congratulations to the group of students who participated in the State Honours Ensemble Program (SHEP) at the end of Term 1 and represented Emmaus College impeccably in Concert Band, Vocal Ensemble and String Orchestra Ensemble. We`re so proud of your efforts! ❤💙
- STOMPY SELFIES! -
Have you met our wellbeing mascot, Stompy? Stompy’s role at Emmaus College is to stomp out on the ‘stigma’ that is often associated around mental health. Stompy is often raising awareness and encouraging the school community to look after their wellbeing, to be kind to one another and to reach out and talk to others. Often Stompy will be in the forefront of our wellbeing activities over the year. A special thank you to everyone who helps create an inclusive school journey for all our students.

- CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF MUSICALS! -
2013 saw the Sydney Roosters win the NRL season, the word ‘selfie’ get added to the dictionary and Argentine Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio became our new Pope. In 2013, Emmaus College presented Oliver!
Oliver! is a musical based on Charles Dickens`s book "Oliver Twist," narrating the tale of an orphan who flees from the orphanage to join a group of young pickpockets in 1830s London. He befriends the Artful Dodger, a boy under the guidance of the crafty Fagin, and is saved by a generous man after being unjustly blamed for a theft. Nonetheless, he encounters peril from Bill Sikes, Fagin`s aggressive accomplice.
- CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF MUSICALS! -
1997: John Howard is our Prime Minister, Harry Potter and Philosophers Stone by J.K Rowling is published, and the average price of a house is $150,000. Emmaus College also presents The Sound of Music to the Rockhampton community.
The Sound of Music takes place in Austria just before World War II. It revolves around Maria, a young woman who takes on the role of governess for the von Trapp family. Through her introduction of joy and music into their rigid home, Maria forges a close connection with the seven von Trapp children. Over time, Maria develops affection for the children and later their widowed father, Captain von Trapp.
We would like to wish our Emmaus College staff, students and families a wonderful and safe Easter period ❤💙
- CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF MUSICALS! -
What happened in 2004? It’s the year Facebook was launched, Apple released the iPod Mini, Shrek 2 and The Incredibles was in theatres and Godspell was the chosen musical for Emmaus College.
So what’s Godspell about? Godspell presents a contemporary reimagining of the Gospel of Matthew. Led by John the Baptist and Jesus, the characters engage in parables, songs, and interactive scenes that emphasize values such as kindness, compassion, and empathy. By combining storytelling and music, Godspell underscores the importance of love and forgiveness in times of adversity.
