The College of St Cecilia was the SCA college at La Trobe University, Melbourne, in the Barony of Stormhold. Started in the 1990s by Arenwald von Hagenburg, it has lapsed into dormancy, but since 2017 had been restarting. Meetings were advertised on the La Trobe University Student Union website and on their Facebook page. It was unfortunately killed off again by the Plague of 2020.
St Cecilia's registered device is Vert, a goose holding in its beak an open scroll argent, within a laurel wreath, in chief an annulet Or. The goose symbolised the birds in the small lakes on campus.
Some Cecillians claimed that the goose on their heraldry was not actually a goose, or even a duck, but a fearsome hybrid between the two.
