Penrith High School '78 reunion: October 2008

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 photos and lovely emails.....

Thanks girls, it was a great night. You know I walked up the stairs andthought you invited some old teachers to the reunion, but then I realized,“HAY” they are the kids I went to school with. Looking forward for thenext one, if it was left up to the boys it would never happen. If youcan’t remember me I’m in the second photo red shirt. Cheers Jan Rozema

KAY, JULIE, MARINA, HELEN, DEBBIE, CHRIS, ROS, SOPHIE, JANETTE, VERONICA & EVERYONE INVOLVED ON THE ORGANISING COMMITTEE, Excellent, excellent, excellent night. Superb effort by all involved and well done to everyone who did make it. Some excellent and long lasting memories for me.

I took a 127 photos so I’ll burn onto a disc to pass on to you but might send a few choice photos now. It’s gunna take me a week to get over the sleep deprivation but it was worth it. Chris
