An Evening of Connection and Celebration – 2025 OGA Reunion
We were excited to welcome back alumni from across the decades last weekend as they returned to Santa Maria College for the 2025 Reunion. Held on the beautiful Terrace, it was a fantastic evening filled with laughter, reminiscing, and reconnection, as classmates gathered to celebrate their milestone reunions.
Alumni from the Classes of 2020, 2015, 2005, 2000, 1995, 1985, and 1975 came together, with some flying in from interstate to be part of this special occasion. The evening kicked off with a tour of the College, allowing guests to revisit familiar hallways and see the many changes that have taken place over the years. It was wonderful to witness their excitement as they explored the school’s evolving facilities while sharing fond memories of their time as students.
It was heartwarming to see alumni reconnect with old friends, many of whom had not seen each other in years. The night concluded with many groups continuing their celebrations over dinner, extending the opportunity to make new memories together.
