Over 70 alumni and friends of St Mark’s have already volunteered to be Table Captains for the Centenary Gala Dinner on 15 March 2025, organising tables of 10 for this historic night.
The Centenary Gala Dinner, 100 years to the day from the official opening of the College on 15 March 1925, will be the highlight of our Centenary celebrations next year.
At a recent reception in his home, the Head of College, Professor Don Markwell AM, thanked those who have already offered to serve as Table Captains. Their enthusiasm was infectious!
If you would like to be a Table Captain for this Centenary event, contact Karin Dunsford, Director of Centenary Engagement, at centenary@stmarkscollege.com.au or on +61 8 8334 5607.
This is a perfect opportunity to contact friends and colleagues who perhaps you haven’t seen for some time and to celebrate this special occasion together.
All are welcome at the Centenary Gala Dinner – current and Old Collegians and their family members and friends, friends of the College, our generous donors, past and current parents, descendants of founders and of past Collegians, past and present staff, and more. It will be a great night for connection and celebration.
Invitations for the Centenary Gala Dinner are being posted in coming weeks, and further details will be included in future e-newsletters.
Would you like to be a sponsor for the Centenary Gala Weekend?
The Centenary Gala Weekend from Friday 14 March to Sunday 16 March 2025 will be attended by our Old Collegians and our extended community from around Australia and around the world.
