“I would like to know you as you are: your image of me will be enough to change me.”
At Saint Ignatius College, Geelong, an Arrupe Leader is a student who models leadership in the spirit of Fr Pedro Arrupe SJ, embracing the Ignatian call to be a "person for others."
Our Arrupe Leaders are:
Service and justice focused - They take initiative to support others, both within and beyond the school community, demonstrating a commitment to fairness, inclusion, and advocacy for those on the margins.
Reflective and faith-filled - They engage in thoughtful reflection, making decisions aligned with the College’s Jesuit identity and values.
Courageous and compassionate - They lead with heart, showing empathy, kindness, and quiet strength.
Active contributors - They play a role in shaping the culture of the College, helping others feel seen, valued, and inspired.
An Arrupe Leader is not defined by a badge or title but by their everyday actions, their service-oriented mindset, and their desire to make a difference, following in the footsteps of Fr Arrupe’s vision of forming students who are ‘agents of change’ in a complex and needy world.
Here are two of our Arrupe Leaders, Enda and Harriet, sharing the ways that they have been working to be people of service:
Enda Fitzgerald:
For Neurodiversity Celebration week, I helped our College’s Wellbeing Leader, Sarah Manzl, with the art competition. Together we decided the winners of the competition, and on the screens in the MacKillop Centre we showcased the creative talents of the participants; the event raised awareness within our community for neurodivergent individuals. I also attended multiple of our school’s social justice meetings, where there was meaningful discussion and supportive initiatives focused on equity, inclusion, and representation for all.
Harriet Stepto:
On Tuesday the 24th of June, we welcomed family and friends to the Potato Shed for our very first Performing Arts Evening. This night consisted of outstanding performances from across the college in Dance, Drama and Theatre Studies. I was fortunate to compere this event alongside our wonderful Arts Captain, Sienna Davidson. It was an amazing night and we are so grateful to the College for supporting our performing arts programs.
