A great way to
welcome back
our newest
past pupils
In a world where virtual life and social isolation are becoming
increasingly commonplace, it is more important than ever that
we keep connected with our alumnae from the very day they
graduate, and constantly reinforce the ongoing support they
have from their AHSisters and the entire extended All Hallows’
community.
In a brand-new initiative for 2021, on 14 March the Past Pupils’
Association (PPA) welcomed back the Class of 2020 for our
inaugural ‘Come back, we miss you already!’ grad get-together.
It was a glorious Sunday afternoon on the Terrace, and such
a great way to connect and re-connect with our newest past
pupils, to catch up on what they’re up to and how their postAHS life is going.
There was also an opportunity to invite them to join the
school’s Peer Mentoring program and to share our plans for
creating social sporting teams for past pupils. There were lots
of laughs, hugs, hashtags and pizza. Thank you to the over
100 grads of 2020 who attended. Thanks also to our band of
fabulous recent past pupils who were on hand to share their
post-school experiences, and to the PPA members who helped
organise the food, refreshments, giant games and ice creams.
We were overwhelmed with the positive response and
gratitude we received from the Class of 2020, and are pleased
to announce that this will now be an annual event.
