The St Bernard’s College Old Collegians Association (SBOCA) as we know it today, was incorporated in 2000 and has become the overseeing body of all its affiliates. The Association itself has been in existence since 1952. It has continued to grow strongly with a greater emphasis on providing more opportunities for Old Collegians.

Affiliated societies of the St Bernard’s Old Collegians Association include a wide-ranging array of sporting clubs.

The Association has been supportive of the College in its financial appeals for a variety of different projects, working with the College to provide support and fundraising. 

One of the most valuable links that the Association has with the School is the awarding of financial bursaries to the winners of five of the College’s major awards—The Sportsman of the Year, The Arts Person of the Year, The Social Justice Person of the year, The John Connor Award and the Spirt of Edmund Rice Award.

 

 

How can you give?

The Association also provides grants for Old Collegians wishing to take up new and exciting challenges via The Global Gateway Grant and the Leadership in Community Grant Programs

Links between the St Bernard’s Old Collegians Association and the Old Collegians happen in several ways. The Strand magazine, which is published twice each year and is sent to all Old Collegians on the College database, Bernies Two Minute Friday, an old collegian focused newsletter that is emailed every fortnight, a plethora of events and of course, the St Bernard’s College Old Collegians social media pages on Facebook, Linkedin and Instagram.
