Refurbishment of the Colleges Boarding Department
ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT OFFICE Navigation The reason why this facility needs to be upgraded is for us to maintain diversity at the College, remain globally relevant and competitive.This project is in the feasibility study phase with specifics to come in future communications.
Multi Purpose Sports Facility
MULTI-PURPOSE SPORTS FACILITY Navigation This Sports facility which will be developed in various phases will allow our students to participate in sporting activities and practices year-round, regardless of season and weather conditions. Such a facility is essential to maintain our high level of competitiveness in sport. Furthermore, the Sports facility will provide a single venue that can accommodate all students and staff at the same time for events, such as the Celebration of Mass, Academy and Prize Giving and assemblies. This is especially important now as the College enrolment has risen above 800 and there is currently no single venue that can cater for this number. This facility will also allow for community engagement.
Bursaries and Scholarships
BURSARIES AND SCHOLARSHIPS Navigation The College has throughout its history offered bursaries to students in various circumstances and this tradition continues. Our hope is that we can keep this going and extend it to more students. The Bursaries offered will cover tuition cost at various levels and is offered for various academic, sporting and cultural excellence. We also offer fees support to students who may need it at various stages in their education at the College Special Scholarships: Fr Hugh Ross SJ Memorial Scholarship The Old Georgian Class of ‘71 launched the Fr Hugh Ross SJ Memorial Scholarship to mark the Old Georgian Association’s Centenary year in 2021. This scholarship was initiated by Rory Knight OG Class of 1971. The scholarship will be administered through Gratia International, an organisation run by Rory Knight that currently gives scholarships to students in Africa to study in Nigeria (Tansian University), South Africa (University of Cape Town & Stellenbosch University) and in Zimbabwe (Arrupe Jesuit University). The Fr Hugh Ross Memorial Scholarship will add Oxford University to the list of these universities. To donate to this particular scholarship, click here.

New College Living Museum and Archives
NEW COLLEGE LIVING MUSEUM AND ARCHIVES Navigation After 125 years of students passing through the College, we have amassed an amazing collection of records, artefacts, photographs, publications, videos and other historical items that have outgrown our current College archival space. The College now aims to build a structure that will be a living museum for all the physical and digital artefacts that we have collected up to date, and will allow us to continue to collect and curate artefacts well into the future.
