It’s fair to say that Byron Community College is a bit of an institution and a much-loved asset for the local folks of the Byron Shire.
With over three decades dedicated to education, creating opportunities and fostering resilience in the Northern Rivers, it’s a collaborative achievement made possible with the support and generosity of the wonderful local community.
To commemorate this remarkable milestone and pay tribute to the incredible individuals who have supported, studied and enriched the College over the years, they think it’s time for a bit of a street party (of sorts!).
Head on down to the Mullumbimby Campus for a morning of festivities on the corner of Burringbar and Gordon Street, Mullumbimby.
Join them for an open day and suitcase rummage – a classic Aussie get-together.
Bring a suitcase, sell your old clothes, and discover pre-loved treasures from others. The festivities include a retro-style coffee van, live music, and free workshops. It’s your chance to check out the newly renovated campus, meet the dedicated staff and trainers, and explore the unique and interesting courses on offer.
With a commitment to the success and wellbeing of their students, and a focus on accessible education for all, many of the course are funded* and nationally recognised. The College is a place of inclusivity, diversity, and thoughtful collaborations that support the genuine needs of the local community of the Northern Rivers.
After a year spent injecting new life into the College, not just in response to floods but also in its commitment to meeting student and community needs, new partnerships have been forged to bring impactful opportunities to their beloved community. With much-needed renovations to the campus and facilities, a slew of new course offerings and a fresh new website and rebrand that reflects the vibrancy of this community, 2024 is looking bright for all!
Join in all the fun and create your future, together!
The open day and suitcase rummage is on Saturday, December 2 from 8am to 1pm.
