University of Pretoria - TuksAlumni

UP’s Alumni Relations Office, in collaboration with Zoetendal Vineyards & River Estate, recently brought alumni, partners and friends of UP together in support of the Degrees Delivered campaign.

The evening raised an incredible R220,000 through ticket sales, donations and an auction, with alumni playing an important role in supporting and bringing the evening to life.Together, we can help more qualifying graduates overcome historical debt and access the degrees they’ve earned.

A family legacy at UP that spans generations.

The Pretorius family has now earned 10 degrees across three generations, all from the University of Pretoria.

From 1959 to 2026, their journey reflects what it means when a university becomes part of a family’s story. Read more here: https://www.up.ac.za/alumni/news/legacy-of-learning-ten-degrees-three-generations-one-university-of-pretoria-story

Today, we welcomed students to the first Wellness Week activation, creating opportunities to prioritise well-being, build connections and engage with the wider UP community.

At UP, alumni relations starts long before graduation. Through initiatives such as Wellness Week, we're reminding students that they are part of the Tuks AlumNation from the day they choose UP.

Thank you to everyone who joined us today. We look forward to connecting with more students across our campuses this week.

Need a study break? Join us for a relaxing Pilates session during Tuks AlumNation Wellness Week. Stretch, recharge and return to your studies feeling refreshed.
