School Tour
On the day after the dinner, some of the reunion attendees were treated to a tour of the school facilities. I've only heard one comment which suggested that the boarder facilities are, at best, no better than 40 years ago!

Please feel free to add your own comments about the tour...

The 40th Reunion Dinner
The 14
The 14
The 40th Reunion Dinner has been and gone. It was held at the Seaton Arms Hotel in Albury on September 29, 2007. In addition to those who were able to attend, several others sent apologies (including one from an avid Geelong supporter who rightfully predicted that there would be some serious celebrating to be done on the night!)

The 14 ex students who attended all appeared to have a great time reconnecting and exchanging stories.

Graeme should be commended for the planning and arranging the venue etc. All of the background stuff "just happened" with the service and food from the Seaton Arms being excellent.

Many of us had literally not met for over 40 years, and the "5 minute" lifetime vignettes were quite fascinating. These short histories revealed a diversity of life paths -- law, agriculture, academia, transport, finance and more.

Interestingly, those who attended all told of an ability to generate changes in the direction of their lives, or to cope with externally imposed change.
