Alumnae Events
Past Pupils’ Association Golf Day
A record number of ladies attended our annual Past Pupils’ Association Golf Day held at Sorrento Golf Club on Monday 3 May. The day remained fine, and the ladies were able to enjoy a fabulously fun, yet competitive round in glorious sunshine.
We thank Jo Lonergan (Connaughton, 1969) for her efforts in gathering together such an extraordinary group and congratulate her on finishing in first place, with Gigi O’Donoghue (Douez, 1968) placed second and Jan Lupson (1973) finishing third (pictured left).
Sorrento Gold Club have kindly agreed to host us again next year with a proposed date of 2 May 2022.
Diamond Luncheon
How blessed we were to gather together this year for our annual Diamond Luncheon, especially in an era of COVID-19 and after so many disappointments and lockdowns of the previous year.
There was genuine joy in being together and in celebrating not only our beautiful school, but one another, the highlight being a welcome Mass in our spectacular Chapel of Christ The King.
Rev. Fr Elio Capra kindly greeted each of our guests personally and gifted us with a very special and poignant Mass, appreciated by our guests and staff.
Our Year 8 students assisted in welcoming our precious alumnae from the Classes of 1961 or earlier, and our fantastic Maintenance Staff were on hand to deliver them right to the front door in the buggy!
Mikayla Fitzgerald (Year 10) shone as Cantor for the Mass, and Isabella Jao (Year 10) played the haunting 2nd Movement of Clarinet Concerto, both with incredible poise and extraordinary talent.
This treasured day in the school calendar grows in significance each year, and we look forward to being together once more in 2022.
