October Alumnae Spotlight -
The Story of Theresa Koroivulaono: Class of 1977
5th October 2026
In our October Spotlight, we catch up with Dr Theresa Koroivulaono, Class of 1977, as she reflects on her unforgettable SJSS years, including her role in the school’s 1976 production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat. From becoming a chef to serving as a college president, Theresa’s remarkable career journey is a testament to the power of curiosity, perseverance and believing in yourself. Discover her memories, the lessons that shaped her life, and her heartfelt advice to current SJSS students: choose a pathway you enjoy, make your contribution meaningful, and make it count.
A Message to Our Alumnae!
To all our Alumnae travelling to Suva for the 70 Platinum Jubilee Reunion in September 2026:
What a wonderful occasion it will be as alumnae from across the globe, spanning the 1950s through to the 2020s, come together with our local Fiji alumnae to celebrate the enduring spirit of St Joseph’s Secondary School.
We look forward to reconnecting with old friends, making new memories, sharing stories and laughter, and meeting today’s students, who carry the SJSS legacy forward.
To everyone travelling from near and far, travel safely and enjoy every moment of the journey. May your time in Suva be filled with friendship, joy, nostalgia and the special bonds that have kept us connected across generations and continents.
Welcome home to SJSS! We look forward to seeing you all in September.
