Alumnae
Welcome to Alex Alumnae Association, a network of strong, kind and supportive Alexandrans from across the generations.
For many decades, Alexandra College has played a key part in the developing role of women in every sector of society in Ireland and around the world.
From a time when higher education and the workplace were closed to women, through to the abundant opportunities and ongoing challenges of the 21st Century, the College has upheld the Quaker principles of equality and fairness for all. As our girls have left school and moved on to a wide range of careers and lives elsewhere, they have always sought to maintain their Alex ethos, values, and friendships.
Calling all Alexandrans!
Be part of a global community of strong, kind, supportive women of character.

Spread the Word
We love to celebrate our alumnae and to share their endeavours, challenges and success stories with the College community.
Whether you are launching or developing a business; driving or volunteering for a cause; training for a sports event; or raising a family, we want to hear about your ventures and those of your fellow Alexandrans.
If you have a cause, campaign, mission or business, let us know about it and allow us to help promote and engage support for your ideas and initiatives. Email us at alumnae@alexandracollege.ie
