Alumnae Achievements

Congratulations to our alumnae for their recent achievements and career successes.

We were delighted to hear that musician and former bursary pupil Mathilde Milwidsky is one of eight violinists chosen worldwide to perform in the Soloist masterclasses at the Verbier Academy in Switzerland; Mathilde will release her debut solo CD this summer.

Grace Spence Green, who starts as a junior doctor this summer, was interviewed by The Guardian about how her life changed instantly following an accident, and yet subsequently gained friends, greater empathy and a passion for changing people’s perspectives.

Dr Bibi Ghalie was featured in The Times on her campaign for all hospital staff to be given panic alarms and dangerous patients to have their records flagged.

Haematologist Frances Rotblat was remembered in The Times for her work helping to create an effective treatment for haemophilia at the Royal Free Hospital.

“Plunging deep into the world of atoms, materials and the applications of nanoscience, with accessible text and richly shaded pictures…” – scientist Dr Jess Wade’s book Nano – The Spectacular Science of the Very (Very) Small was lauded as one of The Guardian‘s children’s books of the month.

Katrina Dionisio, who has just finished her first year at St Hilda’s College, Oxford, is captain of her college’s University Challenge team.  Her match will be televised on 19th July.
