❤️ In June, we hosted our Scholars and Donors Luncheon to celebrate the power of giving and its transformative impact on the lives of Sancta students.
✨ Thank you to our generous donors, supporters, alumni, past scholarship recipients, University of Sydney partners, and our scholars for joining us!
😍 This special annual event is one of our ways of expressing gratitude to our donor community, whose valued support enables many students, especially regional and rural women with financial need, to access the Sancta experience and a world-class university education.

👏 Congratulations to Sancta alumna, Lee Lewis (Fresher 1989), on being awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in the King’s Birthday Honours 2024 for her service to the performing arts as a theatre director!We are sending a huge Griffin congratulations to our previous Artistic Director Lee Lewis OAM, who yesterday was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for her contribution to the performing arts.
During her time at Griffin she directed over 20 productions for the company including Angus Cerini’s THE BLEEDING TREE (which won three Helpmann Awards including Best Director) and, of course, the world premiere of Suzie Miller's PRIMA FACIE (which was the beginning of the play's phenomenal journey around the world).
Lee started at Griffin as the Associate Director in 2008, becoming Artistic Director & CEO in 2012 and after seven incredible years at the helm moved on to become Artistic Director of Queensland Theatre in 2020. Under Lee’s leadership, Griffin brought dozens of new works to the national stage with unprecedented critical success and audience growth—gender parity and diversity across programming, casting and staffing—and cultivating the next generation of Australian writers and creatives. In 2021, Griffin joined the National Performing Arts Partnership Framework, securing significant and sustainable investment—testament to Lee's legacy for the company.
Lee's achievements span far beyond this brief list and the scores of artists, audiences and colleagues who sing her praise knows no bounds. Griffin couldn't be prouder.
What a well-deserved accolade—join us in congratulating Lee!
