Student Stories at Dunmore Lang

Dunmore Lang College is proud to showcase the stories of students and their experiences around the World! 

"In the second half of 2019 I was fortunate enough to be chosen to attend two interstate conferences: The Indigenous Health and Justice Conference held in Darwin and the Federation of Ethnic Communities’ Councils of Australia (FECCA) 2019 conference in Hobart."

Read Ky's story

"In June and July of 2019, I was fortunate enough to join an archaeological dig as part of my Ancient History major. While my major focuses on ancient Egypt, this dig was set in Medieval Ireland – a vastly different location and culture to what I was used to learning about."

Read Sally's story 

"Going overseas to experience university study from a new perspective was something Toby and I both wanted to achieve and we were able to do this by studying at the University of Bergen, in Norway as part of a 6-week short-term exchange in January and February 2020."

Read about what Vanie has learnt about in College.

As summed up by one of my favourite artists Vincent Van Gogh, “Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.” I look forward to seeing the progression of our College and the various contributions that will define our legacy. Embrace the small things and look beyond the final product, because that is where you’ll truly see the masterpiece.

CrossRoads - A Junction to My Future - Mohammad Sajid, Eastwood

Read Mohammad's story!

Expand

I came to the Principal, Alasdair, and Dean of Students, Liza, at a point where I was once again at a vulnerable point in my life and unsure what to do. They welcomed me into the family at Dunmore Lang College, which has become my home away from home. Somewhere amongst the welcoming attitude and the security that my problems would never go unheard, I felt a warmth like never before, a familial bond. Before long, I realised that I had never before felt a deep sense of belonging the way I do now in the community at College.
