Salesian College Farnborough is delighted to announce that we are relaunching our Alumni network, Salesian College Farnborough Alumni (SCFA), as a central point of contact. 

This new platform is available to all former students, staff, and existing alumni groups, to attend events and reunions, support our Careers programme , develop networking opportunities, and reconnect with old friends! 

Statement from Frank McKenna, retiring Chair of Old Salesians Association (Farnborough) OSA(F) “Since from almost the time the school was founded, the Old Salesians Association (Farnborough) has maintained valuable links with the school and been a forum for ex-pupils. However, we believe a new approach is needed to cultivating and maintaining links with past students and that is why we are delighted that OSA(F) will merge with the new SCFA, with a new website, LinkedIn pages, newsletters etc. that will be the new basis of maintaining the Salesian collegiality for all those from 18-80+. In welcoming this merger, I am confident that the vision, values and heritage that the OSA(F) has built over the decades will be prominent in this new entity. We can look forward to many more years of remembering happy years and looking forward as Alumni of Salesian College Farnborough.” 

Mark Louch, member of SCFA said “this is a wonderful opportunity for all Salesians to stay connected with the broader Salesian family. Over the next year we are planning to host a reunion dinner, sports activities, and Mass to bring us together.” 

To join SCFA please register your details on our website and in return we will keep you up to date with Alumni news and events via social media, the website and a Newsletter.

During the Easter break, our Year 12 students embarked on an opportunity of a lifetime to support an HCPT pilgrimage to Lourdes. Every Easter HCPT take 1000 disabled and disadvantaged children to Lourdes for a fun-filled week of activities. Our students were allocated to 'family groups' for the duration of their visit, which included the Grotto, a Torchlit procession and a trip to the nearby mountains.
