Request for Nominations for the OGCA Notables Gallery

The OGCA inaugurated its Portrait Gallery of Notable Old Geelong Collegians at College on 19 August 2011 as a sesquicentenary gift to the College. Administered by the OGCA Committee, the gallery recognises, honours and celebrates the achievements of past students and inspires our current students.

The gallery features a diverse collection of 102 portraits of Old Collegians who have excelled in various fields in Victoria, Australia and the world.

Photographs of the inductees are on permanent display in the 1873 entrance to the Senior School.

Inductions are held every three years, with the next opportunity in 2025.

We encourage you to consider the Old Collegians you know. Discuss potential nominations with your friends, family and fellow Old Collegians. We are particularly interested in female nominations as we celebrate 50 years of co-education.

Please complete the nomination form using the link on this page. For further information, please contact: communityrelations@tgc.vic.edu.au
