Verum Inluminans Awards and Honours Evening | Invitation

The name ‘Verum Inluminans’ reflects the heart of our awards evening: a tribute to students who exemplify excellence within the Catholic educational tradition. ‘Verum’, meaning ‘truth,’ represents our commitment to learning as a pursuit of divine truth, a journey that aligns with God’s order in creation. ‘Inluminans’, meaning ‘illuminating,’ highlights the role of our students not only as learners but as carriers of light—called to bring wisdom, compassion, and integrity into the world.

In celebrating ‘Verum Inluminans’, we honour students who rise above the distractions of modern life, pursuing their best selves and inspiring others to do the same. It is a night to acknowledge those among us who embody the values of resilience and service, offering a guiding light to our community. Inspired by Saint John Henry Newman’s words: “If we are intended for great ends, we are called to great hazards”, we recognise those who have answered this call with courage and purpose.
