Burnside HS 60th
celebrations a success
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
CATCHING UP with old
classmates has been a highlight
for former Burnside High School
student Clive Chandler.
Mr Chandler was a key helper
for a two-day reunion marking
60 years since the school opened
recently.
First-day students who were
at the school when it opened on
February 2, 1960 celebrated the
school’s milestone last Sunday
and Monday.
About 40 former students attended
the two-day event.
Mr Chandler started as a
student at the school when it officially
opened in 1960.
The school opened in a staggered
approach with initially only
about 200 third-formers.
“It has been excellent. It has
been really nice catching up with
people I have not seen for 10-30
years,” Mr Chandler said.
He said while some people’s appearance
had changed a lot, some
people still look the same.
The celebrations have included
poetry, a speech from former
principal John Godfrey on the
school’s past successes, lunch and
dinner and tours of the school.
CELEBRATION: Clive Chandler, Robert Findlay, principal Phil
Holstein and deputy head girl Emma Hollingworth at Burnside

BACK IN TIME: Former students at the official opening of
