Saint Andrew’s Theological College in Sydney set to move to new premises

·

Saint Andrew’s Theological College in Sydney will relocate to its own state-of-the-art facilities next year, to coincide with the College’s 40th anniversary.

The announcement was made by His Eminence Archbishop Makarios of Australia during the College’s Open Day, held online via Zoom on Wednesday, December 4.

Archbishop Makarios, who also serves as the Dean of the College, shared the news with joy and emotion, emphasising the commitment of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia (GOAA) to provide students with modern facilities that integrate contemporary tools with traditional theological studies. This includes digital libraries, virtual learning platforms and advanced communication technologies.

The Greek Herald understands the College will be moved to the site of the former St Basil’s aged care home in Kensington, Sydney, which closed in early 2024, requiring elderly residents to be relocated to other St Basil’s homes. The Kensington site was previously operated by Castellorizian Aged Care.

The Open Day was attended by prospective students, faculty, and alumni. His Grace Bishop Silouan of Adelaide, Sub-Dean Associate Professor Philip Kariatlis, and Registrar Father Anastasios Kalogerakis also addressed participants.

A video featuring student testimonies and a detailed presentation of the curriculum further enriched the event, concluding with a lively Q&A session.
