Loreto Community Morning – Celebrating 150 Years of Loreto Australia and South East Asia
You are warmly invited to join us for a special Loreto Community Celebration on Sunday, 27 July 2025, as we proudly mark 150 years of Loreto Australia and South-East Asia, and 120 years of Loreto College Marryatville. This milestone event brings together current families, Old Scholars, and the wider Loreto community to celebrate the lasting legacy of Mother Gonzaga Barry.
Enjoy the LOSA Community Mass, explore the 150 Year ‘Being Faithful to Grace’ traveling exhibition alongside our 120 Year exhibition showcasing our rich history. Take in a captivating student drama performance, ‘Serious Business’, and hear from our Artist in Residence during a special guest talk.
There will be plenty of fun for children too, with classic games from the early 1900s, and refreshments available throughout the morning. We’d love to see you there! To help us plan and manage numbers for our activities, please register your attendance here.
