A New Chapter Across the Pond  

Picture this: a New York evening, spectacular views, and a room full of people who once walked the same corridors you did. St. Catherine’s is officially landing in the Big Apple! 🍎  

This is our very first alumni event in New York, and the moment our US alumni chapter begins. Whether you left St. Cats last year or have long since made the U.S. home, there’s a seat (and a drink) with your name on it. Chapter one of what we hope will become a beloved tradition. 

70 Years of Legacy & Looking Ahead  

St. Catherine’s is turning 70, and seventy years of history, community and global excellence tend to make a school look ahead. So the St. Catherine’s Alumni team joined forces with the Futures Department on their U.S. Universities Tour, and together they set out to carry the spirit of St. Cats across the Atlantic. Expect fond memories of campus life, plenty of “do you remember when…” and a few stories about where life has taken everyone since. Our past, present and future, all in one room, and you’re in at the very beginning.
