We were delighted to welcome alumnae from across generations to ILUMINA for our annual Normo Networking Evening, bringing together women at every stage of their personal and professional lives to reconnect, expand their networks and celebrate the enduring connections that begin at Loreto.

A highlight of the evening was a panel discussion featuring three remarkable alumnae who generously shared their career journeys, the lessons they have learnt along the way and the experiences that have shaped them both professionally and personally.

Our sincere thanks to Eleanor Knight (’09), Prue Martin (née Riley, ’98) and Requel Burden (née Trevillion, ’91) for their openness and honesty as they reflected on career changes, navigating uncertainty, backing themselves and the importance of community, resilience and staying true to their values. Their stories resonated with alumnae at every stage of their own careers and sparked thoughtful conversations throughout the evening.

Thank you also to Isabella Codsi (’13), who expertly facilitated the discussion, creating a relaxed and engaging conversation that encouraged both reflection and connection.

Special thanks to the organising committee – Caroline Purtell (née Dalton, ’91), Sarah Ball (née O'Brien, ’95), Bella Codsi (’13), Jane Parker (née Anderson, ’84) and Milly Arundell and Rebecca Curran from the Advancement Team for ensuring a SOLD OUT event!

Normo Networking continues to demonstrate the strength and generosity of our alumnae community. It is always inspiring to see women supporting one another, sharing their experiences and investing in the next generation of Loreto women. These connections are what make our alumnae community so special, and we look forward to welcoming many more women to future Normo Networking events.
