Support St John's

We are grateful for the many ways our alumni and friends support St John's and the next generation of Johnians – giving their time, expertise, financial support or a legacy pledge. It makes all the difference to what we are able to offer our students. Thanks to your generous financial support, we have been able to realise transformational capital projects such as the new Library and Learning Resource Centre and we can offer much needed scholarships and bursaries to students.
