University of Canterbury Catholic Society Alumni Dinner

Thursday 08 October 2026

5:30pm - 9pm

Tī Kōuka, Haere-roa, University of Canterbury

The University of Canterbury Catholic Society invites alumni, current students, and members of the wider Catholic community to our inaugural CathSoc Alumni Dinner.

Join us for an evening of great food, conversation, stories and connection as we bring together generations of people who have been part of Catholic life at the University of Canterbury.

We are pleased to welcome Bishop John Adams, former UC Chaplain and alumnus, as our keynote speaker. The evening will also feature alumni stories from different generations, reflecting on faith, vocation, work and life beyond university.

The evening will also look towards the future, with the launch of the University of Canterbury Catholic Alumni Network — an opportunity to maintain the connections formed through CathSoc and build a community of fellowship, mentoring and formation beyond university.
