Robb College Student Leadership Team
Some of Robb’s Student Leadership team have taken time out while away from College due to COVID-19, to tell us a little bit about themselves. Please see their Q & A’s below:
George Chudleigh

Hometown: Frogmore (God’s Country), NSW

Favourite Movie: Fired Up

Why should students’ come to ROBB: Robb is the one of the best places to meet individuals from around Australia and make connections that can guide your future employment after your time at University. Robb also has a very family-like culture as it doesn’t matter where you’re from, who you are and what you’ve done - everyone is accepted and considered a part of the very tight Robb family. As everyone is so inclusive and friendly, it makes for an easy transition from being fresh out of school or fresh out of a couple of gap years.
SRT Message: Although Robb is guiding its way through these uncharted times within society, I feel that Robb will be as strong as ever when we return. I am very happy to be handed the role of SRT this year and I am looking forward to the continuation of the Robb spirit from the first year students through to fourth year’s once we return. The Robb spirit has previously prevailed in trying times for the college and I believe it will do so again. I hope that each Robber who is at home is only becoming increasingly excited for the return to the large family that is Robb College. Thank you all for the amazing start to the year 2020 and I hope we can continue this great Robb culture when we return. I hope everyone is staying safe and I’m excited to see you all again.

Why should students’ come to ROBB: I believe students should attend Robb College due to the degree of independence, community and family it facilitates. Robb is a place where you can learn to grow as a young adult under the guidance of its multi-dimensional support networks and activities which promote enjoyment, youth, charity and togetherness. It is a home which enables each student to equally engage in social activates, university studies and career preparation. We are a family who constantly teach each other how to compromise, to speak up for ourselves, to try new things, how to fail and how to succeed. Our shared learnings and experiences lay a foundation for a continued friendship and value set which we will take with us far beyond the years we spend here. Robb is a forever home and family, it is a network of incredible alumni and community members and it is a classroom that has taught us life and academia of which any student would be privileged to be a member.
