Edwina Considine nee Kennedy had a long involvement and commitment to KRB.  She was a KRB student from Year 5 – Year 12 (KRB 1979), a staff member in the Development Office 2000-2007, parent of Georgina Considine (Prep – Year 8, Leaving Class of 2014) and Sacre Coeur Association Committee member whose knowledge of and affection for so many of the RSCJs and older alumnae was invaluable.

At school, Edwina had friendships across different groups in her year including many boarders.  These friendships lasted her whole life.  Edwina loved planning a social function, getting people together, and she applied this enthusiasm into instigating and organising most of the school reunions for the Class of 1979.

Edwina’s working life was spent mainly in administration in various organisations including American Express, Wedgewood and various family businesses.  She was a superb networker and her role as Alumnae & Events Manager in the KRB Advancement and Community Office made full use of her talent for communication, fundraising and event planning.

Travel was a major passion in Edwina’s life and she regularly travelled to visit friends in Europe, the UK, Hawaii, Hong Kong and Singapore.

Edwina was a devoted daughter to her late parents Ronald and Veronica, a proud mother of Georgina and a wonderful sister to Stephanie.

Edwina passed away from complications following back surgery.  At the celebration of her life, held at the Royal Sydney Golf Club, there was a huge turnout including many from the Class of 1979 and other KRB year groups who came to honour and remember our dear, funny, smart and generous friend.

RIP Edwina – 02 May 1962 – 12 May 2024
