Scotch College Prospectus | Page 19

OSCA maintains and builds ongoing, meaningful relationships between Scotch students, past and present. From 40 + annual events, including our renowned Annual Dinner, to the 27 Old Scotch clubs and societies affiliated with OSCA, the Old Boys have a myriad of ways to continue the interests and friendships formed at the school, and stay engaged with the wider Scotch Family.
This begins in Year 11 with the Mentorship Program, which sees current students connect with inspirational Old Boys to help guide them through the challenges and opportunities of their school career.
After graduation, alumni are welcomed into the Young Old Boys Program, created specifically to support new alumni as they begin their life after school. It provides them with advice, mentoring and mateship from their OSCA peers. Old Boys of every age also benefit from OSCA Thrive, our mental health and wellbeing program.
