EcOLMC

This vibrant co-curricular group brings together passionate students who are committed to promoting sustainability and making a positive impact on our College community. Driven by a shared vision for a greener future, they lead various creative and engaging initiatives designed to raise awareness and inspire action. From thought-provoking campaigns to informative presentations at College Assemblies, these students are the voice of environmental responsibility. A standout achievement was the launch of their very first Sustainability Week in 2018 — an exciting and impactful event that sparked conversations and encouraged everyday changes for a more sustainable lifestyle. Whether highlighting the importance of reducing waste, advocating for climate action, or promoting eco-friendly habits, this group leads by example and empowers others to do the same. Their energy, dedication, and leadership continue to shape a more environmentally conscious culture within our community.

Environmental Impact Assessment and Sustainability Steering Committee

In 2016, the College undertook an environmental impact assessment, inspired by the Year of Mercy and by Pope Francis' encyclical, Laudato Si', or Praise be to You, specifically regarding the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor.

The College's environmental impact assessment was prepared specifically to provide a benchmark of the College's current carbon footprint, to reduce and monitor this into the future. More broadly the College is committed to embedding the principles of sustainability across all elements of the School. To coordinate this work, a Sustainability Steering Committee has been established to work on the development of the College Sustainability Statement, Identify and prioritise College Environmental Objectives.
