About Cromwell

History of the College


The history of Cromwell College is one of people – it is not the buildings, gardens or any other external feature.

From its opening in June 1954 “its story is largely the story of graduates and undergraduates who have lived and worked and talked and played in it.” (Rev Dr Lindsay Lockley, first Principal of Cromwell College)

Cromwell College was the inspiration of a group of Christian leaders in the Congregational Churches in Queensland.
