The Church Teacher’s College Alumni Association was established January 27, 1973. Its mandate expressed in its charter was to:
(i) – establish, encourage and promote close links between present and past students of the college;
(ii) – assist in the academic, intellectual, social and cultural development of the institution;
(iii) – foster continuous interaction among all past students of the college;
(iv) – maintain an active interest in the development of the country
(v) – ensure that all funds of the Association shall be applied solely to the furtherance of the expressed mandate.
As Mrs. Pearline Williams, the last elected president of the Association wrote in 1979, the Associations has passed through a number of prolonged periods of dormancy, interspersed with some activity. The Alumni Home-coming celebrated in the summer of 1997 was one such event which heightened interest in the Association.
It was another 8 years as the college approached its 40th Anniversary that the Alumni re-emerged to participate in the planning and execution of events commemorating the occasion. A 40th Anniversary Committee included the President of the association, Mrs. Pearline Williams and other Alumni members. As far as the Alumni was concerned, the inclusion of Alumni Day as a part of the College’s Founders Week celebrations was a significant milestone. This was an opportunity given to the Alumni to rally support on an annual basis. It is hoped that the activities planned around the day would also shed light on areas within the college that the Alumni could mobilize support for.
On November 19th 2010, a social was held, which saw the largest group of Church alumni in attendance. The new Principal, Mr. Garth Anderson and his wife Tracey; both Church alumni were introduced. He led the discussion, sharing where the College was heading and the role the Alumni could play.
