Established in 2014 by brothers Vik Rao ’88 and Vivek Rao ’86, the Rao Cup includes several inter-house competitions between Seatons’ and Wedd’s. Each house has a Commissioner who organizes the monthly competitions that range from sporting events to trivia. 

This weekend, a spirited game of basketball was played with many boarders cheering and Mr. Heffernan and Mr. McCubbin as referees. Rao Cup events foster brotherhood, house spirit, an active and healthy lifestyle and are always fun-filled activities for the boarding community.

The Principal's Assembly this week featured UCC’s boarding community and many returning and new boarding students and staff spoke about the unique and special aspects of boarding. From the academic support available, to the personal growth and life skills learned, the sense of belonging and strong bonds of friendship that are formed, our boarders did an excellent job of sharing their perspectives of boarding life. A short film made by boarding students Michael X. and Daniel H. was screened and received very positive feedback.
