Purpose of Recognition

Women in Time – Inspiring Alumni celebrates outstanding achievements of extraordinary Loreto College Ballarat alumni in a diverse range of fields and areas of endeavour. It recognises alumni whose service has made a significant contribution to Loreto College, our regional, state, national or global community, and who will inspire current and future students

Women in Time – Inspiring Alumni recognises and promotes the actions and achievements of Loreto Ballarat alumni who have gone above and beyond what could be reasonably expected. It encourages aspirations and ideals of the highest community standards and values. Women in Time – Inspiring Alumni is an assembly of models of Loreto women who, in the spirit of Mary Ward and the Loreto Mission, have in their time “come to do much.” It is the College’s pre-eminent means of recognising outstanding achievement and contributions by past students.

Selection Criteria are needed to ensure that the selection process is objective and transparent. The process must exhibit consistent expectations of the required standard of achievement and be applied with adequate rigour, in order to preserve value and prestige.

The founding year of the Women in Time – Inspiring Alumni will seek to induct up to two nominees in each category, with between one and four inductees in total in each following year
