Stories of Change

EMMA CHANDLER, PUBLICATIONS COORDINATOR & CAROLINE STOK, ARCHIVIST

In celebrating 50 years of Co-Education, we also celebrate our many “Stories of Change,” reflecting on the remarkable journey our College has taken over the past five decades.

From embracing diversity and fostering social change, to enhancing facilities and evolving the curriculum - the College has continually adapted to meet the needs of our community.

The following pages feature some of the most significant milestones from each decade. We celebrate these stories of change and growth, and as we look to the future, look forward to continuing to set a progressive path for generations to come.

We hope you enjoy these stories. It will be a trip down memory lane for some, and an opportunity to learn more about the College for others.

It is no easy feat to keep 163 years of history curated and catalogued and accessible. We recognise our Archivist, Caroline Stok for her continued efforts, and especially for gathering the information for our ‘Stories of Change’. Credit, too, must be given to our former Archivist, Con Lannan for his invaluable contributions during his time here. Caroline and Con’s work enables us to know, and be able to share, our College story.
