Catholic College Sale Celebrates Mr Anthony Robbins’ 35-Year Legacy with Prestigious Marist Award

Catholic College Sale is proud to announce that Mr Anthony Robbins has been honoured with the Outstanding Contribution to Marist Education award. The award was presented by Dr Frank Malloy, National Director of Marist Schools Australia, at the MSA annual mass and dinner.

Anthony’s journey through Marist education spans more than 35 years. It began with his role as Senior School Captain at Catholic College Sale and has evolved into a career of profound impact. From teacher to House Leader and now Deputy Principal Learning and Wellbeing, Anthony has consistently exemplified the Marist values of humility, simplicity and presence.

“Anthony is the heartbeat of the Marist spirit at our College,” said Catholic College Sale’s Principal, Mr Brett Van Berkel. “Anthony’s influence reaches across all aspects of College life, from the classroom and sporting field to the arts and wellbeing initiatives. His leadership has been characterised by a servanthood and a profound commitment to cultivating a culture of family spirit.”

Beyond the school gates, Anthony’s dedication continues. As a long-serving Marist cricket coach and participant in the 2024 Marist Pilgrimage, he has deepened his commitment to faith and service. His quiet strength and enduring presence continue to inspire others.

This award recognises not only Anthony’s professional excellence but also his personal embodiment of the Marist charism. His legacy will continue to inspire future generations of educators and students.

As Catholic College Sale reflects on this milestone, the entire school community extends its heartfelt congratulations and gratitude to Anthony. His life of service stands as a shining example of what it means to lead with faith, compassion and purpose.
