For the first time in 22 years, St John’s College won the Inter-College Council (ICC) Old Collegians’ trophy outright.
St John's College celebrated many victories throughout 2022, winning premierships in a variety of sporting and cultural contests.
The Johnian women took home premierships in tennis, AFL and athletics, earning them a 3rd place finish in the ICC competition.
Meanwhile, the men’s hockey, athletics, swimming, and volleyball teams won premierships.

I am so grateful to report we had an exceptional year. Our athletes, musicians and every competitor represented the choc and gold valiantly.”
“And the Johnians who are on the sidelines are just as important. The Whip Out is part of what makes St John’s College so special.
