St Hugh’s alumnae jubilee lunch on Sunday 22 September 2024

We were delighted to welcome back St Hugh’s alumnae who matriculated in or before 1954, 1964 and 1974.  Guests enjoyed re-connecting with old friends they had not seen for a long time as well as those they have remained in contact with since graduating.

We were pleased to host four alumnae from the class of 1954 and earlier, 19 alumnae from the class of 1964 and 31 alumnae from the class of 1974.

Despite the heavy rain, everyone’s spirits remained high.  While we had to cancel the garden tour, Professor Jenny Green, Custos Hortulorum, gave an engaging indoor presentation showcasing the beauty of the College gardens over the years. Thankfully, the rain subsided later, allowing  guests to explore the gardens and admire the stunning display of plants in September bloom.

After a drinks reception and a warm welcome from our Senior Tutor, Professor Robert Vilain, guests enjoyed a delicious three-course lunch prepared by our talented chefs, accompanied by wine and cherished memories.

To everyone who attended, we thank you for making the day so special and we look forward to welcoming everyone back to College again soon.
