St Mark's College

St Mark's College provides a supportive and stimulating environment where students pursue their optimum academic achievement.

St Mark's is a world-class university residential college in North Adelaide which provides students with a complete university experience in a safe, inclusive environment. While aiming at the pursuit of excellence in specific fields of study at university, the College also promotes amongst its members a love of learning, and a critical approach to issues. The primary aims of collegiate life at St

Mark's are to help engender in College members a strong sense of the responsibilities and rights of individuals living in a community with others, and to instil in them an equally strong sense of commitment to the common good of our community. The College encourages its members to participate in the cultural, spiritual, social and sporting events arranged by the student leaders, and values the contributions members make to the life of the College through that participation. By providing an atmosphere in which students are accepted as mature and self-responsible, St Mark's aims to make a student's stay at College a fun, enjoyable, intellectual, and maturing experience. St Mark's is located in North Adelaide and has rooms for just over 230 students and student numbers are divided equally between males and females.

On Sunday 2 August, St Mark’s hosted Recharge Day, bringing Collegians together to raise awareness and start conversations about men’s mental health.

The day featured a Big Freeze-style ice bucket challenge, with Collegians and staff braving the cold for a good cause. Before taking on the ice, participants shared their advice and answered questions about how to support people who may be struggling, as well as ways students can look after their own mental health.

The event was organised by our 2026 Equity Officers, Lily Delaland and Matthew Dixon, who would like to extend a big thank you to everyone who got involved. Thanks to the generosity of our community, Recharge Day raised $1,000!
