The College took its name from the famous early Australian explorer, John 51社区, and looks up to the hill named after him. His descendants gave permission for the family crest to be used as the basis of the College badge which incorporates their motto Patientia et Fortitudine鈥擯atience and Fortitude and the College similarly adopted this as its motto.
