Over the past 50 years, has grown from rural neighbourhood houses to a thriving organisation.

This film offers a glimpse into the people, experiences and moments that have shaped Cire, from 1976 to today. It brings together voices from across our community, each reflecting on the role Cire has played in their lives.

First shared at Cire’s 50th Anniversary Gala Ball, this video looks back through history and offers a glimpse into the promising future.

We invite you to take a few minutes to watch and reflect with us.

Cire Community School's first purpose-built campus is planned for Clyde North, and we could not be more excited.

Scheduled to open in 2027*, the Clyde North campus will support students in Years 7 to 12 who are looking for an alternative to mainstream education. This campus is a response to growing community need for school options where students can build confidence and reconnect with education in a way that works for them.

It’s a school built from the ground up with student needs at the forefront. Dedicated wellbeing zones, calm learning spaces, and outdoor areas are designed to stimulate engagement.

Every detail draws on what we have learned across our campuses to offer an environment built to help students feel settled, understood, and ready to learn. Expressions of interest are now open, visit: https://www.cire.org.au/community-school/enquire-now/

NAIDOC Week is here.

This year’s theme, 50 Years of Deadly, marks five decades of recognising the strength, leadership and culture of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

From early leaders such as William Cooper, a Yorta Yorta man who brought people together to stand up for justice, to the generations that continue this work today, NAIDOC Week reflects both history and ongoing progress.

Through our Reconciliation Action Plan, Cire is building shared understanding across our organisation and taking steps to embed this work over time. NAIDOC Week is one part of that journey.

Cire Services brought a real challenge to the Social Impact Hackathon at Monash Business School, Monash University. The brief: how do we better connect our data systems to measure not just what we do, but the genuine difference it makes for the people we support?

Every team brought thoughtful ideas and real energy to the room. A big congratulations to the winning team, whose solution was creative, grounded, and gave us plenty to work with.

Thank you to Monash Business School and Bronwen Fallows for organising such a well-run event and for welcoming us to pitch our problem. It was an inspiring day, and a reminder of what fresh thinking can do for a challenge that really matters.

Student disengagement is becoming a systemic challenge in schools.

This article looks at how flexible, specialist education models can support young people to re‑engage with learning when traditional structures are no longer working. It explores the role of individualised pathways, integrated wellbeing support and hybrid delivery in helping students rebuild confidence and find sustainable ways back into education.

Read the article to learn more about flexible pathways and what helps disengaged students reconnect with learning. Visit: https://www.cire.org.au/cire-community-school/reimagining-education-flexible-pathways-to-re-engage-disengaged-students/
