Let's Talk Clubs!
Did you know that Wantirna College offers a variety of lunchtime clubs for students to explore their interests, make new friends, and have fun? From creative crafting to exciting games, there's something for everyone to enjoy during lunchtime!
Dungeons and Dragons
Join us for epic adventures every lunch! Spaces are limited due to the club's popularity, so make sure to grab a spot and embark on thrilling quests with fellow players.
LGBTQ+ Club
Meet every Monday to connect and discuss important topics. For more information, reach out to FLA or GRL.
Yarning Club
Gather in Mason House every Monday and Thursday for some creative crafting. Whether you're a beginner or an expert, all skill levels are welcome!
Card and Board Game Club
Every Tuesday at lunch in K2, join us for a variety of games! Play classics like Chess, Uno, and Battleship, or try newer favourites like Tacocat and Werewolf. You can play with friends or join a group game that changes each week—check Compass for updates!
Warhammer Club
Launching next year! Join students assembling and painting miniatures during Card and Board Game Club on Tuesdays if you’re interested in getting involved.
Lego Club
Meet in Mason House every Tuesday and Thursday and unleash your creativity with LEGO!
Minecraft Club
Every Wednesday in E1, connect with other players and explore endless adventures. For more information, talk to ZUL.

Fri-YAY Games
Every Friday (weather permitting) in the courtyard near the B Block, enjoy outdoor lawn activities like Giant Chess, Smashball, Jumbo Jenga, and Ring Toss. All students and staff are welcome to join the fun!
