Our logo
The main feature of the logo is the rotunda. Our Rotunda is a commonly recognised symbol within our local community. A rotunda traditionally symbolises – a central location, a place for the community to celebrate, meet together and share knowledge.
A shield symbolises strength, protection, defence, guardianship, establishment and reliability.
Sandringham College offers a protective and safe environment where students are respected and encouraged to explore and celebrate their individuality and creativity. The incorporation of the wave at the top of the shield reflects the Colleges’ bayside location but also recognises how the College must constantly evolve to best meet the needs of our students.
The College colours of blues and gold also reflect our geographic location, reminiscent of sand and sea.
