- Divine Mercy

[edit] Mascot
St. Aloysius Gonzaga's school mascot is a bulldog. For many years this characters role was fulfilled by the same person since his arrival in the 2003 play, "Dinner In Oz".
[edit] Uniform
As of the 2006-2007 school year, the uniform has consisted of either a dress shirt, tie and blazer or a Rugby style shirt, made by the tailoring company McCarthy's, as well as khaki pants or kilts (although as of the 2005-2006 school year, the kilt has been discontinued for new students). However, St. Aloysius Gonzaga's new house system is a reported improvement towards the school's overall spirit and academic enjoyment.
[edit] Student Council Elections
Student Council Elections for the 2007-2008 school year will take place during the second week of May, 2007. Prime Minister candidates include Samantha Y and Marina Faheim. Campaign trails can already be seen as buttons and cupcakes float around the school. Who will YOU pick?
The girls were anxious to put up their campaign posters, but were informed that they could not until May. They have reverted to other methods of campaigning and have definitely raised the bar for all future election campaigns (being the earliest campaigners in Gonzaga history).
