Well we managed to connect again for a great night - plenty of drinking, talking, laughing, dancing was done by all.
Here are some snaps from the night..... best part? we get to do it all again next year for those of us who turn 50 then
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you all....
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.

I came across a record some of you may have been involved with .. the Penrith Primary School Choirs and Bands, 1972.
So there is now a copy of it on youtube, if you want a flashback to how talented we all were back then :)

Enjoy it ...
and remember, we were no older then 12.
Fantastic - is that from you Ian? what a hoot - some of you are famous!!!!
Thanks smudge :)
It's Richard, by the way, should've said so earlier.
I was in the guitar club.
Enjoy 2011 :)
Hey Richard! Thanks for the trip down memory lane... thought it might have been Ian because he continued in the band and was in the police band as well.
Your right about Ian.
I remember playing in the brass band with him as well, you've just reminded me.
It was the coronet I think. Great to know he went on to the police band.
Wow.. the memories can be unravelled :)
