The Reunion Happened at Easter 2007.

Events occured on Thursday 5th April, Saturday 7th April and Sunday April 8th 2007.

Q: What do you get when you put 40-50 65ers in one place?
A: Chat, Noise, Remembering, Laughter, Reminiscing, Fun!

54 of the 101 Found Classmates attended one or more event.
Several Teachers attended ... Gregor Ramsey attended every day.
190+ people in total, including 29 partners attended Thursday to Sunday.

Those attending resolved to not let the reunion end with Easter, and we have some ideas to keep it alive and to organise further lower-key gatherings of 65ers. More about that later.

We hope this helps us find some more members.

A Preliminary program for the Reunion has been released!

79 Class Members amd 24 Staff have been Found!
We still have some leads ..

We now start hunting for "Lost" Class Members ...  
50 to Find!
Class Members requested to redouble the search.

We have now "found" 70 classmates and had sad news of 7 deceased classmates. We have located 16 surviving Teachers from 1965 so far.

We expect to locate more '65ers as we get leads from "found" members and continue the search for others.

We now have 9 members's stories and 2 teacher's stories, and hope to collect many more of these.

A preliminary program has been developed and we will be discussing it with the school community before releasing it to 65ers.

We are looking forward to a good Easter weekend!

A 5B class member found their Class Photo and has supplied a good list of names.

That gives us the full set!

Progress in finding Students and Teachers from 1965 continues.

We now have "found" around 46 students of approximately 70 contacts from the 120 students and plan to find more.

We have "found" 15 staff from 1965 so far.

We have news of deceased membners of both groups.

The website now has 50 pages with information, photos and a growing list of stories and rememberings.

More searching and following up more leads has lead to our making contact with more students and one member of the 1965 Senior Staff.

We have possible leads to a group of staff from 1965.

Our probable most distant classmate has sent here story and a "now" and "then" photo for the member's part of the website. We hope to get many more of these!

Information about what has happened so far and links to teh website has been emailed and posted to "Found" members.

We have a Photo that survived Cyclone Tracy!

A little damaged but still good!

The next challenge is to identify all the people!

Memorabilia Section, where items of the time can be displayed for you to see - do you have any to contribute?

Life and Times Section, where events and information related to 1965 are listed. Please help us add to these lists as we recall what was happening in the World, in Australia and in South Australia during 1965.

Addition of extra pages with 1965 information, plus the first two Class member's Stories.

Plus creation of the 1965 and 2006 Student  Activities Photo Galleries with links from the left side changing image display.

The Reunion has been advertised to the current school community via the school newsletter.

This can be read on the School Website Newsletters Page.

It is on the last page of Newsletter 36

Contact has been made with Woodville High School Administration and Staff.

• Principal Meredith Evans has offered help from the current school community to support our activities. More information will follow later as this is detailed.
• We are looking forward to receiving historical and current information and photos, etc for the project.
• Thanks also for the work done by the Old Scholars Association to support our project.

The Website has been started. You will see it before you know about this news item!

Geoff started contacting people by letter and then phone or email.

Some of the Old Scholars found were able to contribute to the search by helping locate others.

A list of contacts is being built.

Initial planning for the activities of Easter 2007 has commenced.
