💙Sancta’s Postgrads are Moving for Movember!
Our postgraduate students have been stepping it up for men’s health, raising awareness and funds for Movember one walk (and one Yo-Chi stop!) at a time.
Thank you to first-year resident Isaac Gill for leading Sancta's involvement in this important initiative. Together, the team have nearly raised $1,000!

⭐️ Congratulations to first-year postgraduate resident Abigail Bobkowski, whose written works 'Saints' and 'Torn Up, Shredded' have been published in the ninth edition of the University of Sydney's Newcomers Journal!
✍️ Newcomers is a curated collection of exemplary works by students living in the University’s owned and affiliated residences. The journal recognises students’ achievements in the University's Intramural Programs and highlights their curiosity, critical thinking, and self-expression across a wide range of styles and topics.
✨ Abigail’s first piece, Saints, is a children's poem inspired by her Catholic faith and interest in the lives of a various saints. The second piece, Torn Up, Shredded, is an adult prose poem written in a time-capsule style that deals with seeing someone you love going through something terrible.
🎉 This year's edition of Newcomers and Abigail's contributions were celebrated at the Pro Vice-Chancellor (Student Life) Awards Night hosted by the University of Sydney in October.

👏 Congratulations to Dr Marie Leech, former Principal of Sancta (2008-2017), for being recognised as an Honorary Fellow of the University of Sydney!
This prestigious honour, conferred during a graduation ceremony in October at the University’s Great Hall, acknowledges Dr Leech's "significant contributions to the interests and welfare of the University over three decades, and her contributions to social policy in Australia."
Dr Leech’s career has been defined by her commitment to social justice and improving Australian social policy, holding impactful roles across many not-for-profit organisations, including Mission Australia. As Principal of Sancta, she guided a period of growth for the College, introducing new academic and career programs and overseeing the construction of our Graduate House.
Principal Fiona Hastings and alumnae Liz Hannan (Fr' 1984), Josephine Heesh (Fr' 1974), Rachel Launders (Fr' 1986), and Clover Moore AO (Fr' 1965) attended the ceremony to honour and celebrate Dr Leech’s achievements on behalf of Sancta and the wider university community.
