You are Invited!

150th Celebrations in 2023

From the Principal

It is with a considerable sense of both pride and humility that I invite you to share in the celebration of the 150 years of St Mary Star of the Sea in 2023. By any measure, this is an extraordinary milestone. The history of our College is as much about the history of our city of Wollongong and our State of New South Wales as it is about the proud traditions and evolution of our College.

Two of the high points of our celebration of this milestone in 2023 will be our Celebration Mass and Gala Black Tie Ball both to be held at the Wollongong Entertainment Centre (WEC). The Mass was held on Wednesday, 15 February and the Gala Ball on Saturday, 20 May 2023.

Entertainment is the Killer Queen Experience. Australia's #1 Tribute Band - The Killer Queen Experience has toured to sold out shows in the UK, Norway, Singapore, Russia, and India, and every city in Australia, and shared billing with the likes of Jeff Beck ( RIP ), Foreigner, Journey, Twisted Sister, Thin Lizzie, and Kelly Rowland.

This show features Queen’s greatest hits, including – Bohemian Rhapsody, We Will Rock You, We Are The Champions, Somebody To Love, Radio Ga Ga, Another One Bites The Dust, and more songs that will bring a smile (or a tear) to any Queen fan.

The above events will be community celebrations: a gathering of current and past families, members of staff, ex-students and civic leaders and leaders of business through the period. I invite you to consider partnering with us to conduct these gala events for our city.

Sponsorship packages are also available for the Gala Ball Sponsorship Package

St Mary Star of the Sea is proud of our reputation for contributing to the community of Wollongong. I hope that you will find benefit in joining with us in support of the celebration of 150 years of empowering young women in the Illawarra.
