2024 College Theme
“Do justice, love kindness and walk humbly (Mic 6:8)
How will you live this statement through your leadership role?’
Living out this theme through my leadership means embodying integrity, compassion and humility in everything I do. Ensuring everyone is treated with respect and given equal opportunities to thrive, by carrying out these principles we can not only excel in sports but also inspire others within our college community to uphold these values in their own endeavors.

2024 College Theme
“Do justice, love kindness and walk humbly (Mic 6:8)
How will you live this statement through your leadership role?’
I will live the College Theme by ensuring that fairness and justice is distributed throughout the whole school. I will demonstrate kindness, by making sure everyone feels valued and heard. I will also lead by example as a College Sports Captain. By embodying the theme, I will try to inspire others to do the same and create a positive culture at St. Peter’s College.
From the Archives
In 2014, St Peter’s College celebrated its twentieth anniversary by undertaking a European pilgrimage. The pilgrimage included walking part of the Camino Walk that culminates at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. That portion of the walk, in Spain, stretches some one hundred kilometres and takes anywhere from six to ten day to complete.
As well as the Camino walk in Spain, Mr. Tim Hogan, the Principal in 2014, reported that twenty-six pilgrims visited Assisi, the birth and burial place of St. Francis and the sacred sites surrounding the life of St. Peter in Rome.
Mr. Roger Hampson, the Pilgrimage Coordinator reported that the pilgrimage was led by Fr. Denis O’Bryan, Parish Priest of St. Agatha’s, Cranbourne. There were six staff members, three students and sixteen parishioners, who at one time or another had been associated with St. Peter’s College, made up the touring party. It was a memorable time for all.
St. Peter, Pray for Us.
