Reunion 6-8 November 2015.
|
A good proportion of the students who attended Balmain Teachers College in Sydney in 1956-57 met at the Banksia Conference Centre, The Tops, Stanwell Park, in November 2015 to have a final reunion, a 'last hurrah', after leaving college nearly 60 years ago. The reunion began on Friday evening , 6 November, when about 15 people slept over at the conference site, continued all day Saturday, with a concert on Saturday night, after which about 35 people slept over, ready to continue on Sunday until just after lunch. Several students from the year before or the year after the 1956-57 intake were also in attendance with their spouses and added greatly to the reunion. The group photo on the left shows most of those who attended the reunion, while below, Pam White (Davis) and Bev Kemp (Thomas) catch up on a few missing years. |
