Celebrating our 2025 School and Residential College Award Winners

11 December 2025

Across our Uniting Church schools and residential colleges, students have been recognised for the kind of character, faith and service that builds communities of wisdom, belonging and hope.

In schools, senior students received the Christian Character and Service Award, supported by the Moderator, Rev Bruce Moore, and presented at end of year ceremonies. Each recipient was honoured with a personalised certificate, trophy and monetary award - small symbols of a big contribution lived out in service to others.

In residential colleges, awardees were celebrated for initiatives that brought our Project Plenty themes to life - Discipleship, Transforming Communities, Fit for Purpose, and Life Together. The Moderator’s prize highlights leadership that makes a real difference on campus and beyond.

Congratulations to all of this year’s recipients, and a heartfelt thank you to principals, chaplains, college leaders and staff who keep creating spaces where students can grow in character, deepen faith, and serve their communities with hope.
