Aranmore Catholic College has offered sponsorship
to support the education of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children
for four years. It is intended to assist indigenous students who might
be denied a Catholic Secondary Education. The College offers Aboriginal
Sponsorship because of its clearly articulated commitment to work with
indigenous people and to provide what assistance it can to help further
the career opportunities for young indigenous people.
Our Aboriginal students are an integral part of the College.
They come from all over WA and bring with them an array of enriching
stories and experiences that are truly unique. They are a very close
knit group who have also made friendships with other students, and they
are happy to participate in activities that allow them to maintain links
with their culture.
