The Ross Chapel

Looking for a serene spot to unwind, reflect, or simply find some inner peace? Look no further than the Ross Chapel!

Open 24/7, this special space is perfect for quiet moments of reflection and meditation. But it's not just a peaceful hideaway – we also host special special services to celebrate occasions like Anzac Day and Matariki.

Did we mention our talented Choir? They're made up of Knox residents and add a beautiful touch to our services and other events. And the best part? You don't have to audition, be able to sight-read music or be a Resident to join. This is an ‘all-comers’ choir Knoxies and other colleges’ residents are welcome to be part of these special moments.

The Chapel isn't just about services. It's also a space where we honor Knox College's unique character. We embrace our Presbyterian-based roots while celebrating and welcoming everyone, of all faiths and none. At Knox, we encourage students to explore their spirituality and religious or faith identity in a way that's meaningful to them.
