Belling In: Hospitality and faith in action

On Wednesday 26 February, our College upheld tradition by forming a 100-metre-long guard of honour to officially welcome our new K-12 students and staff during the Belling In ceremony.

Hand in hand, our Year 12 students guided our youngest students through a sea of high-fives, cheers and joyful faces, extending from the College gates on Harrington Street to the College Green. Following in their footsteps were our remaining new students and staff, as the sound of the convent bell rang in the background.

The Belling In ceremony marked the conclusion of our Senior School Commissioning Liturgy, where our Senior School Leaders and Pastoral Care Mentors were inducted into their leadership roles for 2025.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to all families and friends of the College who joined us in the Nagle Centre to celebrate this significant event and offer their blessings to our students.

The Belling In festivities wrapped on the College Green, where students enjoyed icy poles – the perfect antidote to a warm summer’s afternoon.

A big thank you to our fantastic Year 6 Leaders for expertly managing the crowds and ensuring all students and teachers received an icy treat. Well done!
