CELEBRATING OUR PIONEERS AND GOLDEN GIRLS On Saturday 15 May we welcomed 30 of our Pioneers and Golden Girls to the College. Our Pioneers, an important group of women, were the very first pupils of the school when it opened in 1954. It is the first time in almost two years we have been able to host the group at the College, after last year’s event was cancelled due to Covid. It was a wonderful day where our Pioneers and Golden Girls were able to catch up with one another over lunch, be introduced to College Principal, Laetitia Richmond and go on a tour of the campus so they could see how things have changed since their school days. The Classes of 1960 and 1961 were presented with a gift to mark 60 years since graduating from the College and the Classes of 1970 and 1971 were welcomed to the group fondly know as the Golden Girls, celebrating 50 years since graduation.

WELCOME BACK CLASS OF 2020 On Wednesday 2 June we were excited to welcome back to the College the Class of 2020. The first time on campus as part of our Alumni community, they were able to catch up with one another and teaching staff, collect their 2020 Yearbook and tell us about what they have been doing since their graduation. After such an uncertain year last year it was great to see them all together again and hear their news.
