Saint Augustines College Summary

The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.

Saint Augustine’s College is an Independent Roman Catholic School for boys in Year 5 to Year 12. The school places emphasis on community spirit as articulated in the Gospels and the writings of Augustine; and over its history students have been required to take part in community-based volunteer work during their time at the school. The school is a member of the Independent Schools Association (ISA), a collection of independent Sydney schools grouped primarily for the purpose of sporting competition. Its sister school is Villanova College, located in Brisbane,Queensland. Other English speaking Augustinian Schools with the same patron include those in Reading (Massachusetts), Richland (New Jersey) and San Diego (California) – all in the United States; a school in Malta, and schools in Dungarvan and New Ross, Ireland. Over the past couple of years the college has begun to offer the opportunity for international students (usually from Asian countries such as China, Taiwan or South Korea) to study at the school; Five Olympians have been produced from the school as of 2006, and since the foundation of the school sport has had considerable emphasis placed on it within the college curriculum as a means of promoting team work, sportsmanship and fair play. Rugby Union was the code adopted by the school as this was considered the “sport of gentlemen” at the time of the College’s founding, and the code favoured by GPS Schools (NSW Great Public Schools) which the founders of St. Augustine’s admired, the CAS (in which St Augustine’s competed on occasion), and the Independent Schools to which St Augustine’s belonged. Rugby league is not played at the school, even though it is a major professional sport on the East coast of Australia and the most popular code in New South Wales. Ironically, the college campus is immediately adjacent to Brookvale Oval – home of the Manly Sea Eagles – the League team for which the college has produced so many first grade players (who transferred to League after playing Rugby Union at the school). This was a student group founded and run from the 1970s by the Rev’d Rod Cameron OSA during his long teaching tenure at St. Augustine’s College, Brookvale (1964-84). Besides the significant historical musical contribution of Italian Augustinian nun and composer Vittoria Aleotti, Augustinian musical foundations include the famous Augustinerkirche in Vienna where Orchestral Masses by Mozart and Schubert are performed every week, as well as the boys’ choir at Sankt Florian in Austria, a school conducted by Augustinian Canons, a choir now over 1,000 years old. It also played and sang in Benjamin Britten’s Noye’s Fludde together with St Andrew’s Cathedral School in St Andrew’s Anglican Cathedral in 1977. In conjunction with the drama department, the school also produced musicals such as Gilbert and Sullivan operettas including Trial by Jury in 1978 collaboration with Monte Sant’ Angelo and Stella Maris Girls College at Manly. The school is also involved in many short films by students. The ‘houses’ divide students of the school into four different groups which compete against each other during the college’s many sport events and (in the past) other co-curicular contests such as debating, performing arts and music. The school aims to honour Augustinian heritage and history within its customs and traditions; and all houses are named after former Augustinian Bishops of Australia: The college was founded in 1956 as an all-boys school by the local Provincial of the Augustinians, Fr Thomas Alphonsus Hunt OSA, at the request of the then Archbishop of Sydney Norman Cardinal Gilroy. In accordance with Augustinian tradition, the friar who was head of the school was styled “Rector”. From its founding, like many Australian Catholic schools of its time, a significant proportion of its staff were professed religious – in this case Augustinian friars – until the order withdrew professed teaching staff in the 1990s, and the school moved to a fully lay Catholic (cf. 2006 is the 50th year the school has been operating, with 1956 being the founding year. All students of the school have been given a “Jubilee Medallion” to commemorate this occasion. As a consequence of this relational/communal ideal, the pastoral care of students, parents and staff is prioritised in the Augustinian school. Members of the school community including students, parents and extended families are encouraged and expected to reach out to those in need. Again, the Augustinian ideal is of ‘free people acting under the influence of grace, rather than slaves under the law.’ The school’s main classrooms and facilities are set out in six interconnected buildings. The main buildings in the school are as follows: The Augustine Wing (referred to by current school members as the “A Block”) is the oldest of the buildings at the college. The building, like the school, is named after St. Augustine of Hippo. The Mendel Block (referred to by current school members as the “M Block”) was built in 1971 and was specifically designed to hold the school’s science classrooms and laboratories. The Tolentine Wing (referred to by current school members as the “T Block”) was initially constructed in 1972 as a building to hold the school’s expanding library. However, over time, like the A Block, the building was greatly expanded and has now become a three story building used to hold the bulk of the school’s classrooms. The Goold Wing (referred to by current school members as “G Block”) was added to the school in 1987. The cardio and weights rooms are open to students before and after school and are primarily used by students in the school’s open-grade rugby teams. The Lecceto Arts Centre, the school’s newest building, was constructed in 2005 as a modern creative arts centre. This area of the school is used primarily and exclusively by the juniors of the college (years 5-6) and consists of six classrooms. The Old School Chapel is a building located at the front of the school, alongside the main driveway. The order also supplied a number of the other early Australian bishops including Bishop Martin Crane O.S.A, Bishop John Heavey O.S.A., Bishop John Hutchinson O.S.A, Bishop Stephen Reville O.S.A and Bishop James Murray O.S.A The Australian order presently conducts parishes, two schools (the other one established 1948 in Brisbane), St John Stone House (a centre for Augustinian Spirituality), a formation centre, and special ministries such as palliative care, HIV/AIDS ministry, an Aboriginal ministry, and a mission in Korea. The 40 Augustinian friars at St. Augustine’s College over its history include: Coordinates: -33.75929° 151.271337° Central Coast Grammar School | Oxley College St Andrew’s Cathedral School |
