Penrith High School '78 reunion: Oh What a Night!!!!

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.

Oh What a Night!!!!

Music is not my strong point, which is why Marina took charge of organising it for the night (and did a great job - thanks Marina) , but there was a song sometime in our school days called 'Oh What a Night' wasn't there?

Marina did suggest this morning that we should have made it a "Woodstock' weekend, as one night was not long enough to really catch up with everyone, although I know I won't be able to drive for a week!!

Thanks to all of you for coming and making it such a big night. Over the next few weeks, I'll update the blog with photos if you send them to me. I'm not a big photo taker, so I only have few to share now. Thanks to Julie's husband Malcolm for being our 'unofficial' photographer. Remember Mal, if you need us for your reunion, we're there!!

If you want the main photo and didn't get a chance to order it, email with your address details and I'll pass them to the photographer - don't leave those details on here if you don't want the world to be able to see them (a lesson in netiquette...)

my email address is smith.smudge48@gmail.com and Julie's is julieh@exemail.com.au

the photos below are the first installment - it won't be fun unless you send me some more....

We are also planning to continue our lunches every few months, so if I put the dates on here, you'll be able to choose if you want to come - venue will always be the Log Cabin.

Marina, Barry and Chris
