Old Grammarians | Lowther Hall Alumni

Lowther Hall has a strong and vibrant network of Old Grammarians throughout Melbourne, as well as across Australia and overseas.

Former students have the opportunity to maintain lifelong friendships, connect with a diverse network of women across various professional fields, and stay informed about the School's latest developments. They also play an important role in supporting current students, offering valuable career advice and guidance on life after school. Additionally, Old Grammarians are invited to participate in various School events throughout the year, fostering ongoing connections with the School community.

Staying Connected

Old Grammarians have the opportunity to attend a range of events throughout the year, providing valuable opportunities to reconnect with fellow alumni, support the School’s initiatives, and stay engaged with the vibrant Lowther Hall community.

Reunions Program

Staying connected with one another.

The School, in partnership with the Old Grammarians' Association, hosts a series of reunions each year, including those for the 1, 5, 10, 20, 30, and 40-year milestones. These gatherings provide a fantastic opportunity for Old Grammarians to reconnect with both their peers and the School.

Sharing Wisdom

Career and post-school advice for current students.

Old Grammarians play a crucial role in returning to the school to share their insights and advice on careers, university, post-school studies, and life beyond school. They are invited to speak at Careers Expos, student assemblies, and in-class presentations.

Events

Old Grammarians are warmly invited to attend events designed specifically for them, as well as school-wide events throughout the year, including the annual Garden Party, Senior School Production, and music concerts.

Regular Get-togethers
