RENAME THE CENTRE IN HONOUR OF THE VICTIMS

How about 'The Brave' replaces Paterson in the name?

I was once proud to say I went to Knox, now. No longer.

It is simply not appropriate, it is disrespectful to the victims and the values of Knox.

The Paterson Centre name change will acknowledge those Knox boy's who sadly suffered and were not, until now, heard. The intention is to uphold all that has been and is wholesome, healtful and excellent about the education Knox provides and all its excellent staff past and current. If my vote counted, I would suggest the 'Bashir Centre for Excellence'.

In essence, we have all been shamed by the actions of this person.

We should not honour those who have failed our children

It is absolutely outrageous to even consider not renaming this building. His name should be obliterated immediately and forever.

Don't think this is really required, but just for the record! :)

I don't request this, I demand it. As someone who was impacted in other ways by Dr Paterson's failure to act on serious matters, no amount of apology from the school has any meaning until this building is renamed.

As with the tasteless 'he touched us all' plaque at the junior school, this title must be removed.

There are more people with a much greater sense of integrity that the school community can recognise.

I cannot believe this was ongoing and covered up the very men that challenged us on a daily basis to do the right thing, act with Integrity, Virile Agitur seams a questionable slogan considering what went on under Pattersons watch naming a building after him is completely unacceptable!

He is absolutely culpable in all of this. He was then and still is a snake.

i am deeply disturbed by the revelations in the Royal Commission. I agree with the sentiments in Dr Pattersons opening comments. It was his responsibility to protect the students
