Raymont College Open Day – Saturday 23 April

As you can imagine, the pandemic had an effect on uni enrolments and residential colleges. In 2022, we’re excited to be getting back to normal and focusing on our fantastic Raymont community.

We have an Open Day coming up quickly on Saturday 23 April. The Open Day will include a tour of facilities and lunch. We’ll be accepting registrations for the mid-year intake and the new uni year in 2023.

Do you know anyone applying for mid-year uni offers this year or planning to go to uni in Brisbane next year? Now’s the time for them to think about student accommodation.

At Raymont Residential College they'll find a real, down to earth community, great academic and tutoring support, and facilities that will help them balance their uni life.

If you know any young people at the right age and stage of life who would benefit from the Raymont difference, please share our Open Day details with them.

One of the great gifts in spirituality, community and ways of being at mission at the moment is a rediscovery of the importance of Celtic Christianity.

You may be aware that I am leading a Celtic Britain & Ireland Pilgrimage to Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and England 7-27 September this year, followed by an optional extension to the Oberammergau Passion Play in Germany.

I am delighted that Uniting Mission & Education (UME) has embraced this pilgrimage as a continuing education learning opportunity.  Here is their wonderful page with links to everything:

I will be hosting two Zoom information sessions:

Please email me for the Zoom link.

I know that everything is a bit uncertain with COVID, but I think that there are good reasons to think that we will be able to travel overseas by September.
