At ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ College, we follow the motto Quae Supra Quaere – seek the things that are above. For our co-curricular program, that takes on many meanings.
We provide students with creative and competitive outlets that define a celebration of talent, skill, perseverance and fellowship.
In every form of expression and in every sport, we reach for the things that are above. We continually grow and meet new challenges. Side-by-side, we learn from every defeat, victory and breakthrough.
And, from within, we look beyond ourselves and our community to attain an understanding of society as a whole – not as passive observers but as active participants.
That’s Social Justice at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ College. Students examine issues in both rural and urban areas, with opportunities to take part in initiatives that benefit society.
Our goal is to prepare students for life beyond the ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ campus. Social Justice is integral to achieving this – instilling young thinkers and doers with a sense of community and societal responsibility.
The result? An engaging platform that fosters compassion, confidence and character.
As winter grips Victoria, we turn our attention to those in our community facing financial hardship, domestic violence, and homelessness. According to the latest census data, more than 30,500 Victorians will be homeless tonight. An alarming 23% of those are youth, aged from 12 to 24 years. Equally concerning is that family violence is the leading cause of homelessness for women and children.Â
â€
We can make a difference!

This term we join hands with the St. Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal to create awareness and raise funds for those in need. Every day, Vinnies Victoria’s volunteers provide relief to vulnerable people in times of crisis. Their assistance helps cover basic needs such as food, fuel, education, utility bills, and medical expenses.
â€
As the nights grow colder and darker, we begin our Winter Appeal for Vinnies with a commitment to making a positive contribution to the lives of those in our community who need it most.Â
