Get involved

As our alumni community expands into the tens of thousands, so too does our vibrant alumni program. We welcome your ‘time, talent or treasure’ to help contribute to the ongoing success of the College.

Why not volunteer to share your personal or professional wisdom with current students? Beaconhills runs Alumni Breakfast Series events throughout the year. Our students would appreciate your expertise and guidance as part of our mentoring program, with business mentorship in the form of traineeships or cadetships invited.

You may also wish to support various fundraising initiatives, such as the Community Education Support Fund (CESF)  which helps College families doing it tough due to illness or a sudden change in financial circumstances.

We always love to hear stories from our alumni about where life has taken them. Alumni news is regularly published in the College magazine Lux Luceat and on our socials. Share your story by emailing the College engagement team
