Sumario:Highlights from ATLAS are reported, focussing primarily on searches for new particles using proton-proton collision data. The data collected, its quality and the performance for physics are outlined. The initial part of the 2011 data sample has already provided a major extension in search sensitivity compared to the 2010 data, and examples are given. Rapid progress is being made in the search for the Higgs boson. Production of the Standard Model Higgs has been excluded at 95%,CL over the ranges 155-190 GeV and 295-450 GeV.
