College Cup 2027

While we celebrate Rice's achievement as the 2026 College Cup Champions, attention now turns to the 2027 House Championship. The new College Cup year is already underway, and every student has an opportunity to contribute to their House's success.

The upcoming swimming carnivals will provide the first major opportunity for Houses to earn valuable points. Whether competing in races, participating in novelty events, or cheering on teammates, every contribution helps strengthen House pride and adds to the overall tally.

This week's House Rallies on Tuesday created a fantastic atmosphere across the College. Students gathered together with enthusiasm, energy, and House spirit. The rallies fostered a strong sense of pride and camaraderie, and we look forward to seeing that same spirit on display at our swimming carnivals.

Students are also reminded that House points are awarded throughout the year for positive commendations, recognising those who consistently demonstrate our school values through their effort, respect, service, and leadership. 

The House Cup is not won by a select few. It is built on the collective efforts of every student. We encourage all members of our College community to embrace opportunities to participate, support one another, and proudly represent their House as we begin the journey towards crowning our 2027 House Champions. 

Year 8 Dance

This Thursday, Year 8 is hosting their Fundraising Dance. The evening provides a wonderful opportunity for students to socialise, build positive connections, and enjoy time together in a safe and supportive environment. As we prepare for the event, we encourage all students to uphold the values of respectful relationships by demonstrating courtesy, inclusion, and consideration for others. A reminder that all students must hand their phone in upon arrival.
