Saint Ignatius College Geelong
It has been a busy time in Ricci House over the past few weeks. One of the major highlights was winning the House Supremacy Shield for the second year in a row! This victory is a testament to the dedication, teamwork, and spirit that every member of Ricci House has shown throughout the year. We couldn’t be prouder of this accomplishment, which demonstrates our commitment to excellence across all areas of school life, from academics to co-curricular activities and community involvement.
Another standout moment was our contributions to the Share the Dignity charity. Led by our wonderful captains Jack Pummeray and Olivia Tolan, Ricci House organised a donation drive, where we were thrilled to collect over $800 worth of sanitary items. These donations were picked up by Deborah, a representative from Share the Dignity, who expressed her sincere gratitude for the generosity of our students, staff, and families. This initiative not only helped those in need but also highlighted the values of compassion and social justice that we uphold at our college.
We also proudly farewelled our Year 12 students, who have been exceptional role models for their peers throughout their time here. Their dedication to building Ricci House spirit, participation in events, and overall leadership has set a high standard for all. Their efforts in fostering unity and enthusiasm will leave a lasting impact on our house community. They’ve led with integrity, kindness and positivity and their presence will certainly be missed. As we say goodbye to our Year 12 students, we wish them all the best as they step into the next chapter of their lives with confidence and excitement for what awaits them.
The spirit of Ricci House is stronger than ever, and we look forward to continuing to build on this success for the remainder of the year. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to making 2024 a remarkable year for Ricci House!
