College House Structure
The College House structure is an essential feature of college life, with family members joining the house of older siblings. The College House Groups are organised for peer support as well as to allow for students to compete in sport, performing arts and other co-curricular activities throughout the year. Students and staff are allocated to house groups across their time at the college. The four houses have been named by students after the Indigenous Seasons and are:
House Colour | House Name | House Mascot |
---|---|---|
Red | Garrawang (kangaroo apple season) | Kangaroo |
Orange | Biderap (dry season) | Butterfly |
Green | Poorneet (tadpole season) | Frog |
Blue | Waring (wombat season) | Wombat |
In conjunction with all house members, each house also has chosen a particular charity to support through regular fundraising events at the college.
Students work to earn house points across the year through participation in many school events such as whole school sports days, lunchtime activities and other competitive events
