They call it ground Zero don't they? The count from a major life changing event???

PENRITH HIGH SCHOOL REUNION - WELCOME TO OUR BLOG

Update 6 October 2008.

ANY OF THE PHOTOS CAN BE DOWNLOADED BY CLICKING ON THE SLIDESHOW - IT TAKES YOU TO THE PICASA SITE.

Wow - I think it safe to say we had a blast! What a great group of people and thank you to all those who made the effort to come - and if you weren't able to, hopefully you can still get some laughs out of these photos (although for some I think you had to be there!!!)

We hope you have as much fun reading this as we have in putting it together - we hope you'll add comments and send us photos to upload, so that it becomes a great memory for all of us.

We started in 2005 when Cheryl Clarke (Flak) decided life was too short and she wanted to make contact with everyone she went to school with.

After our first coffee meeting we decided we needed something stronger and we've been meeting at the pub or club every two months since!

Cheryl wanted to organise a full-on reunion, but as she got sicker, that went on the backburner - we have decided to organise one for her and just luckily it fits with the final year any of us went to school (but unluckily she won't be here to enjoy it).

It's now been 12 years since our last reunion, so we hope that's long enough to pique everyone's interest..... come along and have some fun.


Julie, Sophie, Kay, Marina, Debbie, Janette, Helen and Ros.

More fun (this time with teachers....)

Mr Alan Graham was one of our favourite teachers - Maths what's more! Mrs Earp, Mrs Young and Mr McKeon can also be clearly seen.

And what about this art work? I don't know who did it, but isn't it fantastic?


Some of these teachers went on to bigger and better things - Mr Pickering (above, second right) became Principal of the Northern Beaches Secondary College and Mrs Young (below, far right) became Principal of Merrylands High School. Many of them started their careers with us at Penrith High!



We had some great carnivals - swimming and athletics - some of us were 'House captains', others great athletes (or were we just legends in our own minds???) I've tried to capture a few of the images to bring back those memories. If you have your own photos, tell one of the organisers..... or leave a comment and we'll contact you.
