Aquinas College, Otago

Aquinas College is one of the Residential Colleges of the University of Otago, named after St. Thomas Aquinas, located in the suburb of Dalmore.

Formerly a Roman Catholic institution in the care of the Dominican Order from the 1950s, between the early 1980s and 1988, the college was owned by the Elim Pentecostal Church, where it was used primarily by parishioners, but also by backpackers and students.

Aquinas College maintains much of the 1950s architecture, but recently there have been major facility upgrades.

Notable among its facilities is its gymnasium, being the only college to have an indoor basketball court.
