New House Leaders

This year we welcomed five new House Leaders to the College. It has been a busy start to the year for them, as they transition into a new school environment and spend time getting to know the students in their care.

Our new House Leaders join Kathy Hicks, O’Brien House Leader and Carmel Anile-Saade, Cunningham House Leader. Welcome to:

House Captains

The House system is a big part of College life. Our House Captains work collaboratively with their House Representatives and House Leaders to create a fun, supportive, connected and safe environment for the members of their House and the greater STCC community.

Introducing the House Captains for 2023:

BRUTON Imogen Di Florio

CAHILL Matilda Lawrie

CATER Alanah Eastwood

CUNNINGHAM Charlotte Foster

DE LACY Olivia Russo

O’BRIEN Emma Cihangir

WILLIAMS Genevieve Galea

House Welcomes

We opened our yearly events with our House Welcomes in February. House Welcomes are an important part of House life that honour our House Patrons and acknowledge our College staff and students. Our House communities came together to welcome our new Year 7 students and their families into the College and to recognise our Year 12s as senior members of the St Columba’s College community.

House Celebration Days

This semester we have celebrated Bruton, Cahill, Cater and O’Brien Houses. Each House gathered to acknowledge the life and legacy of their House patron. Beginning their celebrations with a liturgy and of course sharing a pizza lunch complete with delicious cake.

The House celebrations are a wonderful way for students to connect with other House members and to reflect on the women who made their mark on our College and the greater community.
