BASIL’S

This inviting space pays tribute to Basil Moss, our esteemed former Chairman and founding member of Colets.

Basil Moss, an accomplished individual, was not only a prominent rugby player but also a talented musician and actor. He played a pivotal role in the establishment and growth of Colets, which evolved from humble changing rooms and a rugby clubhouse into the exquisite health, fitness, and childcare centre it is today.

In recognition of Basil's remarkable contributions, we are delighted to present Basil's at Colets as the redesigned hub for the Old Pauline sports teams and, naturally, the vibrant community of Colets members.
