Houses

Every student belongs to one of the College's four Houses: Chanel, Kelly, Moore or Salta. 

Chanel House

The House is named in honour of St Peter Chanel, one of the earliest Marists and the first Marist Saint. He was a missionary to the Pacific and was martyred on the Island of Fortuna. This choice represents our connection to the wider Marist Family and Marist World. It also represents our mission as a Christian community to spread the good news and serve others. St Peter’s outstanding qualities of faith and courage should be an inspiration to us all. Colour: Red. Coordinator: Mr Noel Ornelas

Kelly House

This House is named in honour of Fr Michael Kelly SJ the Parish Priest of North Sydney who provided the original inspiration for the establishment of the College by persistently inviting the Brothers to commence a school in the Parish.  This choice represents our close connection to the Parish of North Sydney and its Jesuit influence. Fr Kelly’s outstanding qualities of vision and passion for education should be inspirations to us all. Colour: Green. Coordinator: Mr Peter Roumie

Moore House

This House is named in honour of the College’s first Headmaster, Br Walter Moore,  who had the responsibility of establishing a new school and beginning the proud tradition of Marist Education north of the Harbour. This choice represents our earliest origins and highlights the continuing development of the College and our proud heritage. Br Walter’s outstanding qualities of determination and persistence in overcoming challenges and difficulties should be an inspiration to us all. Colour: Blue. Coordinator: Mr Anthony McDonnell

Salta House

This House is named in honour of Br Peter Salta, ex-student and staff member of the College. Br Peter attended the school as a boy and then returned as a staff member in 1967. He is the longest serving member of staff, finishing teaching duties in 1999 and maintaining until today an involvement as tutor and assistant in the office. This choice represents the incredible contributions made by students and staff to the College throughout its history. Br Peter’s outstanding qualities of loyalty and commitment to learning should be an inspiration to us all. Colour: Gold. Coordinator:   Mr Daniel Brown
