‘It was a truly wonderful weekend, made even more special as we were joined by so many Sternians who were back on campus, as mischievous as ever, celebrating with us as the sun went down’. Clare Faherty, Alumni Relations ManagerJune 2023 saw our Centenary year come to a close with a memory-filled, two-day festival set within the grounds of LWC, with the rolling wheat fields as the backdrop. It was the culmination of years of planning and preparation. The weather could not have been better with two glorious days of brilliant sunshine, placing the spotlight on our beautiful 1200-acre campus.
