Reunion Weekend
The Reunion Weekend is the highlight in the Old Girls’ calendar each year and 2016
was no exception. Just under 150 old girls attended the events which started with
a cocktail party on the Friday evening. It was wonderful to hear the laughter and
shrieks of delight when people arrived and found their year group and renewed
friendships. The chapel service on Saturday morning and a fashion parade of the
school uniform through the ages brought back many memories. Morning tea
followed, along with lots of chatter and tours of the school which were ably led
by current students.
Everyone agreed the facilities are outstanding and the opportunities the students
have now are so exciting and varied. Lunch was in the dining room and it was very
special to have 11 ladies from the 70 years plus group attend the luncheon hosted
by Gillian Simpson. The year group convenors did a wonderful job in organising
dinners and other events to make the weekend memorable for everyone.
If this is your year for a reunion contact Wendy Groves in the Old Girls' Office
for details – you don’t want to miss out!
