Coral is the traditional "gemstone" of a 35th anniversary, even tho it is not a true stone. The "garden of the sea", it is, like the pearl, a gift of a living creature.
Coral symbolizes life and energy. It is said to prevent ill fortune, offer protection from disease and aid in meditation and visualization.
Altho the darkest red is considered the most sought after color, coral also can be found in pink, white, yellow and black.
We celebrate our Coral Anniversary on 26 January 2013!

The Theresian for Life Project
As part of our Pearl Jubilee, we launched The Class of 1978 Theresian for Life Project. The goal is to make as many of our classmates Theresians for Life, thereby augmenting the funds of the STAA for their numerous projects, and ensuring that our Class stays connected with the STAA.Utilizing the sponsorship funds raised during the January 26, 2008 Alumnae Homecoming, and based on the amounts contributed for our A Gift of Pearls Raffle, our classmates who solicited the sponsorship funds enrolled 21 of our classmates as Theresians for Life.
But that's not all. Our U.S classmates, augmenting the cash equivalent of the First Prize, which they won in our A Gift of Pearls Raffle, enrolled an additional 10 classmates. That brings our total for our Pearl Jubilee to 31 Theresians for Life. And contributing the total amount of P62,000.00 to the STAA!
To learn more about the STAA and its laudable projects, follow the links. To see our list of Theresians for Life, follow the links to The Class of 1978 Photo Album.
