Celebrating Achievement<br />

60s Reunion<br />

Pictured with Principal John Stradwick at right, are Tom Freedman, Ruby Geddes and Rosara Ward.<br />

We hosted our 60s Decade Reunion at<br />

the end of October. It was heartwarming<br />

to have so many people travelling from<br />

near and far.<br />

The joy of bringing everyone together<br />

to share cherished memories and<br />

reconnect with old friends was palpable.<br />

The stories, laughter, and nostalgia filled<br />

the air, making it a memorable gathering<br />

that celebrated our shared history and<br />

the bonds that have stood the test of<br />

time.<br />
