All students are members of the Students’ Club.

The Club organises a wide variety of sporting, musical, and cultural activities to cater for the diverse interests of Ormond residents. Every student can choose to participate as much or as little as they wish. The Club also aids the smooth running of the College community, through the General Committee and a serioes of sub committees. The General Committee oversees the management of the Club. Office bearers are elected at the end of each year by the student population.

Some of the activities that come under the Students’ Club umbrella:

• Ball
  A College extravaganza organised by the students which takes place at a function venue and which generates enormous enthusiasm from students, past residents and friends.
• Billiards
• Chess
• Debating
• Drama
  Each year students produce the Ormond Play which has a week's season at the beginning of second semester. The JCR is transformed into a theatre, with a week of performances in which a large number of students are involved, whether as actors, directors, producers, stage managers, tech crews, backstage hands, sound and lighting, set designers, set builders, painters, advertising, sponsorship and publicity or front of house.
• Intercollegiate Sports Trophies
  All men’s sports are played for points which contribute to the winning of the inter-collegiate sports trophy, the Cowan Cup, named after RWT Cowan, a former Warden of Trinity College. It was first awarded to Ormond in 1966.
Similarly, Ormond women compete for the intercollegiate sports trophy, the Holmes Shield, which was first presented in 1964 in memory of Keith Holmes. Both the Cowan Cup and the Holmes Shield are aggregate trophies awarded to the College which accumulates the most points throughout the sporting calendar.
• International Suppers
  International suppers, often with special themes, are held twice per year in the JCR. These events are enjoyed by many members of the diverse College community.
• Photography
  For photographic students and Photography Club members. Members can purchase film and chemicals cheaply, and develop negatives in the College dark room, as well as contribute to all Ormond publications through their photographs of sporting, cultural and social events during the year.
• Pleasant Sunday Evenings
  Throughout the year these evenings feature musical groups from the College and visiting musicians.
• Smokos
  Regular social gatherings held in the JCR and Quadrangle, usually with some kind of theme.
• Sporting Teams
  Sport at Ormond exists on many levels. The College fields teams in every sport for the intercollegiate competition (see below), and Ormond students also compete at intervarsity, national and international levels. Residents are also encouraged to try out for a sport which they have never played, and enjoy friendly intracollege sporting activities, organised by the Students’ Club.
