17.01.2022 1 October is an important day on the International students’ calendar with the celebration of the Mid Autumn Festival symbolising family reunions across Asia. As the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, families come together in the evening to appreciate the moon and the connectedness this brings to relatives across the world who share the same vision of the moon. To commemorate this special Festival, International students and staff ate lunch together as a ...family yesterday at Ben’s Restaurant Woolloongabba including the traditionally eaten moon cakes. #unlockhispotential #discoverlauries

12.01.2022 Throughout the history of St Laurence’s College the war cry is the living spirit that joins us together; whether we are taking our first steps through the College Gates to begin our Lauries Journey as students or the last ones as we continue our Lauries Journey as Old Boys. "The memories we take with us will always be the ones we cherish together, cheering the war cry on the sporting field or on the College grounds. We cheer to get our fellow brothers across the line. We blee...d the black and gold together within the Pride." https://youtu.be/gGACer8qkGE Special thanks to the creators and video editors of this video for the College in their final year as Year 12 students in 2020, Corbin Dolan (’20) and Reuben Murray (’20). We also extend our thanks to the St Laurence’s College Old Boys who contributed their knowledge and time, Damon Kelly ('00), Dan Crowley ('82) and John Dickie (58) as well as current staff member and former Volleyball Firsts coach, Mr Danny O'Toole. #blackandgold #slcpride #discoverlauries #slchistory

04.01.2022 2020 has been a challenging year for all of us and it makes it even more important to ask #RUOK? today. It is three simple words that may start a conversation and may just change someone's life. Please remember to check on your strong friend, your busy friend, your happy friend or your 'seems to handle everything really well' friend. Because, regardless what it looks like, everyone has their ups and downs. No one has it together all day every day. It is just a part of being... #human. We encourage our students, staff and community to be bold and not be afraid to ask #RUOK? #lauriescommunity #strongertogether
