Changes

In 1982, the Archdiocese began the [[St. Andrew's Greek Orthodox Theological College (Sydney, Australia)|St Andrew's Greek Orthodox Theological College]] in Sydney as a part of the School of Divinity of the University of Sydney. Archbishop Stylianos currently serves as the dean of St. Andrew's, while Bishop Seraphim serves as sub-dean. As the lone Orthodox Theological College in Australasia, it often accepts students of other jurisdictions. Approximately 100 students have graduated from St. Andrew's since its inception; of these, about 25 have been ordained as clergy, while others have become teachers in the Churches schools, catechists, chanters, or have continued into postgraduate studies.

Byzantine chanting is a key part of liturgical services in the Archdiocese. Two performance choirs have been formed: the [[Byzantine Ecclesiastical Choir "Saint John of Damascus"]] in Adelaide under [[Elias Frangoulis]], the Archon Protopsaltis of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia; and the [[Australian Byzantine Choir]] in Sydney, now under George Combis, which in addition to performing, first provided a place for Sydney's chanters to be taught, and then provided two of the three teachers for the Archdiocesan [[School of Byzantine Music]], established in 2005 under the auspices of the Theological College. Both choirs, and the school, teach and perform Byzantine chanting in Greek.
