Old Scholars Are an Integral Part of the History, Tradition and Future of Tenison Woods College

Catholic Education in Mount Gambier has a long and proud history stretching back over 135 years incorporating St Joseph’s School (1908-1952), St Mary’s School (1958-1981), Marist Brothers Agricultural College (1931-1971), Mater Christi College (1953-1971), Tenison College (1972-2000), St Paul’s School Junior Co-ed (1916-1952), St Paul’s School (1972-2000) and Tenison Woods College (2001-current).

We invite all old scholars, past parents, friends and former staff members to reconnect through our Friends of Tenison committee. Join us for reunions, seminars and other activities to maintain an association with Tenison Woods College and to reconnect with former friends.

Join our Friends of Tenison Working Party.

Shining Light Awards

Tenison Woods College and its predecessors, St Paul’s School, Tenison College, Marist Brothers Agricultural College, Mater Christi College, St Mary’s School & St Joseph’s College, value the contributions of all students past and present. The “Shining Light” Awards recognise significant contributions by former students, staff or catholic community members to the local and global community. By recognising these outstanding citizens, the College hopes to inspire current and future students, as well as celebrating the rich history of Catholic education in South East South Australia. Each year in October, we celebrate a group of shining lights who have been nominated and selected as worthy recipients.
