Inside this Issue - Redeemer Lutheran College

Redeemer Alumni
At the end of 2011, Redeemer has seen 4,689 students pass
through its classrooms, with 3,529 of those graduating at Year
12. Our Alumni continues to grow and it is pleasing to see many
former students return to Redeemer to enrol their children within
our Junior School.
Redeemer now enrols 75 students from 47 parents who are past
students of the college. This has certainly been a real growth area
since the introduction of the Junior School in 2007. In addition,
Redeemer also employs 24 former students on staff within either
the Academic or Support Staff areas of the college.
Three reunions were held in 2011: a 10 year, a 20 year, and
our second ever 25 year reunion. The highlight of our reunions
this year was the 10 year reunion for the class of 2001, held on
Saturday 6 August. This was our largest 10 year reunion in recent
years with 70 past students attending on the night!
The 20 year reunion of the class of 1991, held on Saturday
3 September, was a great night of renewing friendships and
catching up. In contrast to the 10 year reunion, this was one of
our smallest 20 year reunions with 30 past students attending.
Our second ever 25 year reunion was held on the first Saturday
of October for the graduating class of 1986. We have struggled
over the past couple of years to track down past students for our
25 year reunions; however, despite the small numbers, the 23
past students who attended had a memorable night in rekindling
friendships from their time at Redeemer.
Special thanks to Robyn Stiller from our College Archives who
comes along to each of our reunions and brings a selection of
Redeemer yearbooks and photo albums for everyone to browse.
This is certainly appreciated by those who attend on the night.
Redeemer Alumni continues to grow each year with 27 graduating
groups now spanning from 1984 to 2011. We also continue to
look for the most effective ways to keep in touch with our past
students. One dream is to reform an Alumni Association to have
past Redeemer students more involved in planning reunions and
get-togethers. Please contact the college if you are interested in
being involved within this area.
We look forward to a bright year ahead as we plan for the future
growth of our Redeemer Alumni.
