Dear OSA Year Representatives

Our Old Scholar Year Representatives provide a vital connection to our old scholars around the world and we are very grateful for the time and effort that you each spend in reaching out to your year groups and retaining a strong community. We invite you to an evening with refreshments and an entertaining slice of history straight from the archives, with a look back on Arts Festival over the last 50 years. straight from the archives

Sandra Naude, Guardian of St Hilda's Legacy, and Old Scholar and author of St Hilda's history book "We Must Ever Be Friends", Pam Casellas (1970), have been delving into the archives and have specific compiled chapters from St Hilda's rich history. As we approach the 2025 Arts Festival on 11 April it seems appropriate that the subject of their lively talk will be on the history of Arts Festival from its origins as Cultural Day in the 70s. They will share stories, photographs and some historical videos.

Please join us in the Heritage Centre for drinks to thank our Old Scholar Year Representatives and enjoy a slice of history.
