From the President: May 2023
Welcome to the May edition of the OGA Blog.
Another school term is upon us, and the weather has officially changed. And we are definitely in May, despite me having to check twice!
It’s an exciting month for the OGA. We are due for our Biennial General Meeting (BGM), which you are all welcome to attend. It will be held on Monday 22 May at 6.30 pm in the College Boardroom. At this meeting, we will elect our committee office bearers and also welcome any new committee members who wish to join us. If you’d like to attend, please RSVP to: [email protected]
In other news, we are so pleased to be able to host our Melbourne-based alumni at their very own reunion! It will be held on Thursday 25 May. There are more details further down on the blog.
Until next time.

Sisterhood Networking Series – An Evening with Sandra Boyle
