What a wonderful afternoon we had at Kelvingrove yesterday. Many well kent faces, a good number of "first timers", and, of course, "The Class of 66" celebrating 60 years since graduation from ND College. Great company, superb singing, and a lot of fun!

At our ND gathering on Saturday 15 August we look forward to welcoming to Kelvingrove Art Galleries, along with many others, a group of ND College 1966 graduates celebrating their 60th anniversary of graduation. Congratulations to all of you! Meet at Harry Clarke window immediately after the 1pm organ recital.

Back to the very first 15th August get together in 2015

Everything is looking good for our 2026 gathering at Kelvingrove Art Galleries, eleven years since we first got together to celebrate the installation in 2015 of the Harry Clarke window.

On Saturday 15th August 2026, at about 1.35pm, immediately following the organ recital, we’ll congregate at the Harry Clarke window on the first floor – to the left of the organ consul – where we will join Anne Morgan with her violin to sing the Salve Regina - and there may be a few more tunes you will recognise!

As always, there will be plenty of opportunity for further socializing over tea, coffee and cake in the café. Do pass info to others you are in touch with and come along if you're free! Friends, families, children, grandchildren all welcome – and there’s the whole of Kelvingrove to explore before and after!

The former chapel of the Notre Dame Training College on the West End of Glagow. Designed in a Gothic style by Pugin and Pugin, it was built in 1898. Part of the first Catholic teacher training college in Scotland, it had a practicing school on the ground floor. It later became part of the country's first Montessori school.

Good afternoon to all ND friends

10 years after our first gathering in August 2015 to celebrate the installation of “our” ND Harry Clarke window, it was wonderful to meet up with ND friends again last year. Some enjoyed lunch during the organ recital, then we met at our Harry Clarke window where we sang and chatted before many of us, in true ND fashion, retreated to the café for more chat over coffee and cake.

On Saturday 15th August 2026, a gathering of folks connected to ND Dowanhill: Primary and High Schools, Training College and, of course ND Convent, will once again take place in Kelvingrove.

Meet up in Glasgow’s Kelvingrove Art Gallery to enjoy chat and refreshments and to admire our Harry Clarke window – all are welcome to join us and the early-birds could take in lunch in the café whilst enjoying the 1pm organ recital beforehand.

Immediately after the organ recital, at about 1.35pm we’ll congregate at the Harry Clarke window on the first floor – to the left of the organ consul – where Anne Morgan will play (she’s pretty good at responding to requests, so feel free!) and we will sing the Salve Regina.

As always there will be plenty of opportunity for further socialising over tea and coffee in the café. Do pass info to others you are in touch with and come along if you are free!
