A Dedicated Resident Support Centre

Residents have access to a range of support and services. Our Resident Support Centre is a place our residents can come for information, a sympathetic ear or just a quiet place to take a breather. It is a welcoming space where everyone will feel safe and comfortable and is equipped with couches, cushions, cosy lighting, and a phone. Should you need support with personal issues, academic concerns or help navigating the ins and outs of university administration, our Resident Support Team will be on hand to help.

An Extensive Academic Tutorial Program

St George’s fosters academic excellence through a range of programs. These include free academic tutorials for most units, run by our resident tutors and senior students. All tutors have recently completed the units they teach and can therefore provide specific tools to help you excel. Tutorials are also a great way to collaborate with peers in your units. Additionally, the college provides workshops and support for general study skills.

MEET THE RESIDENTIAL ASSISTANT TEAM

Stella - Senior RA

Hi, I’m Stella! I am currently in my second year of Medicine at UWA, and this is my fourth year at St George’s. I have grown up and lived in Perth my whole life, so I definitely know some top spots to go. I’m very excited to lead our amazing RA team this year; they are some of the kindest, most approachable people you’ll meet. You can normally find me heading to the beach, trying/pretending to study or having a good laugh with friends. My door is always open so feel free to drop by for a chat and some tea anytime! :)

James - Deputy Senior RA

Howdy.. I’m James and this is my 4th year at St George’s. I am studying an integrated Honors of Mechanical Engineering at UWA. I moved from Albany to Perth at the start of 2021 and coming to George's has been such an amazing experience for me. You can likely find me playing soccer, having a cuppa in the Elsey room or playing video games (avoiding work at all costs). This isn’t my first rodeo so please drop by if you need a hand with anything at all or just want to catch up!

Alex

Hello my name is Alex! I am in my second year of law and psychology at UWA and am in my second year of college. I have a mix of Russian and New Zealander heritage, I was born in Adelaide and have spent the last 10 years in Perth. When I’m not zoning out of my studies or heading to the gym you’ll likely find me making a tea in elsey so if you see me around please come say hi! I’m always open for a chat :)

Ashel

Hey, I'm Ashel! I'm currently doing my second year of Environmental Sciences at UWA and this is my second year at St George's. Originally from Kerala, India, I moved to Perth for uni last year. I like to study [Independent Fact Checkers Say This Is False] at the different libraries in UWA, or the study rooms at George's. You can find me in my room or Clubbies watching a movie with friends if I haven't already run into you. I love going for walks along the river and in Kings Park ( during the day) so come join me sometime! I know how chaotic College and uni can be, so feel free to come to me for chats or even some chocolates.

Beth

Hello! My name is Beth, and I’m in my third year at College and UWA, studying Anatomy and Human Biology. I grew up in Canberra, and moved to Perth at the beginning of 2022! If I’m not studying or having a nap, I can usually be found out for coffee, at the beach [failing to tan], or somewhere in Kings Park. I’m always down for a chat, and my door is always open! I’m so keen for the coming year, and can’t wait to meet you all!

Dom

Hi, my name’s Dom and I am in my third year of mechanical engineering and third year of college. I have a mix of South African and Belgian heritage but have spent most of my life living in Doha or Perth. Having moved around a bit I understand how tough it can be and have a bit of experience in how to cope. My main hobby is playing rugby but I also love all sports and spending my time chilling at the beach. I am always ready for a chat and can’t wait to meet you all in the coming year.

Eloise

Hi there, my name is Eloise and I’m a second year medical student at UWA. Originally from South Africa, I moved to Perth in 2023 to pursue my medical studies - so I understand what it’s like to live far from home and I hope to help support the new 2024 international students! When I’m not studying I enjoy cycling, exploring Perth, and spending time with my friends and family. I’m thoroughly looking forward to being a part of the RA 2024 team and guiding freshers into the college experience ! 

Heinrich

Hello, my name is Heinrich. I am in my third year at both college and uni and starting my first year of Medicine. I was born in South Africa and have had the pleasure of calling the Southwest my home for the past 20 years. When I’m not studying, I am playing sports, going to the gym or exploring Perth and all it has to offer. I cannot wait to meet all and if you need anything my door is always open.

Meg

Hi there! I’m Meg and I’m a fourth year Geographical and Spatial Science and Hydrogeology Major! Bit of a mouthful I know! I’m originally from South Africa, but having been here 15 years, I am a Perth girl through and through. I study water and love the ocean, so more often than not you can find me in some body of it. If you ever need a friend to talk to or a place to explore your new home with (especially the beaches!), let me know! Moving to a new place can be scary, especially if it’s in a country you have never been to before. I can’t wait to meet you all and I hope you love George’s as much as I do!

Orlando

Heya, I'm Orlando. I'm in my third year of uni and also my third year at George's. I was born in the UK but have been in Perth for all of my high school, so I like to think that I know my way around pretty well by now :) If you see me around chances are that I'm either out and about, contemplating a cheeky bit of study, or playing a bit of sport, although given a twist of my rubber arm I'm down for pretty much any adventure. If you ever need a chat or want to go get a coffee, then I'm more than happy to help out!

Rosie

Hi, my name is Rosie! I’m in my third year of uni as well as third year at college, studying English Literature and Gender Studies. I grew up right around the corner in Shenton Park, so I’m pretty familiar with the area!! When I’m not taking a cheeky midday nap or having a 1am cup of tea, you can find me listening to a podcast or pretending to study in one of our many study rooms (shout-out arcus <3). I’m always keen for a chat / tea / walk / study procrastination so please feel free to come find me anytime - my door is always open :) I can’t wait to meet all of you, I hope you love this place as much as I do!!

Sam. M

Hi all, I’m Sam. I’m currently in my third year of Physics and Economics at UWA. Raised in the Tropical Paradise that is Rockingham, I have called Perth’s outer suburbs my home for the last two decades. My go-to pastimes are hitting the gym, and hitting the road. If you ever need to find me, Wardens’ study room is the place to go. Otherwise, my door is LITERALLY always open (or so I’ve been told). I can’t wait to get to meet all of you in 2024, and welcome to St Georges!

Sarah

Hi all, my name is Sarah! I’m in my third year at college and uni studying Medical Imaging at Curtin. I grew up in Kalgoorlie and Bunbury and understand it can be tough living out of home away from your family for the first time. I love sport, sunshine, re-watching old sitcoms and going for walks in Kings Park. My door is always open for a chat and as a tea enthusiast I always have plenty to share. I’m looking forward to meeting you all and sharing the wonders of college!

Tim

Hi, I’m Tim! I’m currently in my second year of a Bachelor of Philosophy in anatomy and human biology and this is my second year at St Georges. I’ve lived in Perth (legit 10 minutes up the road) all my life so I’ve got a load of recommendations on how to navigate our little city. When I’m not studying, you can find me bashing the drums in the music room, chucking around a frisbee, or preparing the finest instant coffee you’ve ever tasted in Elsey. Can’t wait to meet you all and show you why our college is the best around!

Uluka

Hi! I am going into my fourth year of uni. I am from Albany so I love the beach, especially in colder weather. I play lots of music, and enjoy soccer as well. Looking forward to meeting everyone :)

Zoe

Hey everyone, my name is Zoe and I’m in my 3rd year of biochemistry and molecular biology at UWA, and my third year of college. I’m born and bred in Melbourne, and moved to Perth and St Georges at the start of 2022. In my spare time I love playing netball, watching footy, unintentionally spending entire days sitting in friends rooms, and of course beaching. I’m excited to do any or all of these things with you guys when I meet you!
