Recent Events

St Mary's College 1957 - 1959 Reunion

Recently some '57-'59 St. Mary's College students held a reunion, which has now become an annual event. This year they went to York for two nights on the 11/12th September. Sixteen '57-'59 attended, staying in a hotel in the centre of York. There was a lot of talking and reminiscing, but also a great deal of laughter. The group move their venue annually so that travelling distances are more evenly distributed. Anyone wishing to join them should contact the Development and Alumni Relations Office and mail will be forwarded.

UCNW Climbing Club 1957 - 1961

Nine members of the Climbing Club from the period 1957 - 1961 got together during the first week of October staying at the University's Management Centre. Many of them had not seen each other since leaving College but managed to keep in touch 'by grape vine and smoke signals!' and they all recognised each other.

The group walked to Idwal on the morning of the 5th October which really did bring back the memories - Gale Force 6/7 wind and rain! They then had a visit to the College Archives where they saw the Climbing Club record books. It was a most enjoyable time. If anyone wants to get in touch with the group, please contact the Development and Alumni Relations Office.
