It is my great pleasure to welcome the member schools of the ACU Confraternity Carnival to Aquinas College. As a proud foundation school and inaugural Shield winner in 1980, we share a deep and enduring connection to this remarkable tradition.

The Confraternity Carnival is more than a competition; it is a celebration of participation, pride and the spirit of community that has defined the event for generations. It brings together students from across Queensland in a week that promotes friendship, service to others and the opportunity to grow as young men and women.

Aquinas College is delighted to host the carnival on the Gold Coast and hope all players, staff and spectators enjoy both the experience of the week and all our region has to offer. May this carnival reflect the very best of sportsmanship, respect and the enduring Spirit of Confraternity.
