Global Impact
Learn about the extraordinary journeys of our alumni who are making their mark on the global stage. Each month we will celebrate the achievements of former pupils who have gone on to inspire and innovate in a diverse range of fields.
We’ll be asking them about their experiences, challenges, and successes and trying to find out how their time at St Columba’s equipped them with the skills, knowledge, and values to excel in their chosen careers.
Join us as we shine a spotlight on the remarkable individuals who are shaping the future of our world – and see how many you recognise!
