From the President: March 2024
Welcome to the March edition of the Old Girls’ Association Blog.Â
It has been a wonderful start to the year. Our first event, the 2024 Reunion, saw hundreds of alumni return to the College earlier this month. Despite the sweltering heat, it was a lovely evening. It was so nice to see the different year groups enjoying each other’s company, making the event a huge success again. You can read more about the reunion here.
We thank the College for their invaluable support in hosting the reunion and the OGA committee and members for their assistance.
Upcoming Event: Sisterhood Networking Series
The College will be hosting the inaugural Sisterhood Networking Series on Monday 18 March. We are fortunate to have Nicole Lockwood (Class of 1996), Chair at Infrastructure WA and Founder and Director of Lockwood Advisory, as our first speaker. This unique series aims to foster stronger bonds within our Santa Maria sisterhood, creating a nurturing network for support, wisdom sharing, and mutual growth.
Places are limited – you can book your spot here.
Until next time.
Gemma Varone (2009), PresidentÂ
