We are all part of the same family, and we have much to offer each other.Celia Sheldon, Ex-Students' Union President
All ex-students of Kirribilli are warmly invited to join the Ex-Students’ Union.
The Loreto Kirribilli Ex-Students’ Union consists of past pupils of Kirribilli and other Loreto ex-students who now reside in Sydney. This alumni group works closely with the school and the Development Office in various activities and is delighted to have so much interest and support from the school community.
The Ex-Students’ Union is run by an Executive team, together with a general committee consisting of members of all age groups – including some who left Kirribilli many years ago, while others are very recent school leavers.
The committee organises functions and makes decisions about policies and finances on behalf of all of our members. Members are kept informed of what’s happening through Spirit magazine, the school website, Instagram and the Ex-Students’ Facebook page.

One of the primary aims of the Loreto Kirribilli Ex-Students’ Union has always been to provide bursary assistance for the education of Loreto students.
These bursaries have been made possible through the hard work, generosity and financial support of our members and friends.
In 2023, the Ex-Students’ Union made a monumental decision to combine their Bursary Fund with the new tax-deductible Loreto Kirribilli Bursary Fund. This has enabled the Loreto community to work together towards providing a Loreto education for students who would not otherwise be able to afford one.
Should you feel that you can donate to the Loreto Kirribilli Bursary Fund, you can do so on our tax-deductible giving page.
Some years ago, a significant sum was donated to the school through a bequest from a generous ex-student, who had the foresight to include Loreto Kirribilli in her will. Should you wish to follow this lead, the process is straightforward, and we would be most grateful for your support. Please email Debbie Henry in the Development Office to discuss this further.
