MORONGO ROSE

The History of the Morongo Rose

1995 would have been the 75th Anniversary of the Morongo Girls’ College, there were plans afoot to celebrate this special event with a beautiful rose to be designed with the name
“Morongo”. Morongo closed in the November of 1994, however, the ‘Morongo’ rose lived on. Since the school closure and the closure of the Old Collegians Association in 2015, a number of Morongo
Old Collegians have worked toward finding a suitable long lasting outcome for the ‘Morongo’ rose. Two ‘Morongo’ roses were sourced and planted in 2019 at The Geelong College, Mossgiel Boarding
House portico, directly in front of the Morongo Room.
