Student Service

Student service is a community programme where first and second year students contribute to the college community by participating in one two-hour session each fortnight during semester. Service is split between two different areas of the College – Kitchen and Gardening/Property.

Kitchen and Formal Hall

If you are working in the Kitchen or on Formal Hall, you will be helping our kitchen team with a variety of tasks including washing dishes, setting up/cleaning the hall, serving meals and helping with the general management of one of the busiest daily areas of the College.

Gardening/Property

Property Assistants assist our Maintenance and Gardening team throughout the week with ensuring the College stays in tip top shape. Tasks may include moving furniture, working in the Garden or setting up events – you can be assured that no two shifts will be the same.

Shifts are allocated based around your availability each semester and are a good way to learn new skills and meet new members of the Ormond community – both students and staff.

Third year students also complete student service but this is focused on volunteering in the community outside the College.
