At Beaumaris Secondary College, community connections are an integral part of learning. Through partnerships with local organisations, businesses and community groups, our students engage in real-world projects beyond the classroom, building the skills, confidence and understanding to become informed, engaged and responsible community members.
Our students play an active role in a wide range of initiatives, working with local clubs, businesses, kindergartens, primary schools and community groups to make meaningful contributions to the broader community. These partnerships include:
We are fortunate to receive unwavering support from our local council, state, and federal members, who actively participate in school events and prioritise the social and emotional wellbeing of our students and staff. Their support underscores the importance of community collaboration and reinforces our commitment to nurturing thriving relationships within our community.
In 2023, our student leaders advocated for an additional public bus on Balcombe Road to accommodate our growing numbers. This was a great show of agency by our students, and Brad Rowswell spoke very highly of them in parliament.

We are pleased to be able to host community events such as Neighbourhood Watch Community Forums, the Goldstein Youth Forum, BGKLLEN Careers Expo and Beaumaris Fossil Expo. Additionally, our partnership with the Melbourne Cricket Club grants us access to world-class sporting facilities, enabling us to host numerous clubs and local sporting groups. This collaboration not only enhances our sporting programs but also strengthens ties with the broader sporting community.
We also enjoy showcasing The Beaumaris Way and have hosted many groups of educators and interested community members including:
