YOUNG AND OLD: St Margaret’s College junior pupils got to bring their grandparents to school with them last<br />

week. Head of middle school Julie Calder said more than 70 grandparents came to school for the morning on<br />

Wednesday to celebrate grandparents and special friends day. She said the tradition for year 1-6 pupils had<br />

been running for more than 13 years. “The delight in the girls’ faces is just priceless,” she said.<br />
