SMOCA is the Santa Maria College Old Collegians Association.

Having a strong past student body is not only important for recognizing the achievements of the past but also for maintaining the "Santa Spirit" which binds our girls to their former classmates and teachers. The fine example of excellence exhibited by our past students encourages our present students to take pride in our history and to understand the importance of their role as women of the future.

Alumni of Santa Maria never lose their interest in or love of the College. We currently have almost 5000 past students and staff on our Past Students Register. Membership is automatic for all those leaving the school. Santa Maria Old Collegians Association (SMOCA) members receive a newsletter twice a year and there is also a reunion held each year. The Reunion is usually held in the last Sunday of February at 2pm in the school grounds.

Some past students have rallied together to make available awards and scholarships for our current students. The College is currently looking into more ways to ensure the Alumni remains a major force within the College, for example through a mentoring program and guest speakers.

There are many students with mothers, grandmothers, aunts and sisters who attended Santa Maria and this truly adds to the spirit of community within the school.
