Events and Reunions

Throughout the year, SJR hosts a variety of alumni events in Winnipeg and beyond. Join us at one of our upcoming alumni receptions or School gatherings.

Homecoming is the main event when the majority of reunions are held. If Homecoming does not work for your reunion, we are happy to host you on an alternate date.  Please reference our Tips for a Meaningful Reunion document to help get you started with planning your reunion. 
Homecoming 2025 returns with a line-up of in-person events. Dinner on Friday, a Golf game, Soccer, and a BBQ on Saturday, and a tour following. The perfect reunion weekend with plenty of time for alumni to gather at private reunion events on September 19 and 20, 2025.

SJR will be hosting the following milestone reunions at Homecoming in 2025:
1955, 1960, 1965, 1970, 1975, 1980, 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015
 
Interested in helping to gather your classmates? Please contact Joan Banman Cristo '83 at jbanman_cristo@sjr.mb.ca. to help plan your event or include your reunion details on the SJR website.
