A great way to conclude your weekend of memories.
“The Numurkah Secondary College’s class of 1956 held a reunion at the Olive House Restaurant in Kialla on the last weekend of March (2008). The two organisers, Wendy Gilchrist and Elaine Trickey, said 26 former students attended the reunion and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
“It was just the best time,” the women said.
“We had several apologies and some others, mainly local, didn’t come for unknown reason, but we had such a good time we’ve decided to hold another one at the end of March in 2010. So those who missed out this time can come to the next one”. Wendy and Elaine beamed.
They said some travelled from Queensland, the Mornington Peninsula, and Bairnsdale in Gippsland, as well as the local area.
If other classmates want to find out more about the 2010 reunion they can contact Wendy on 58269593 or Elaine on 58662658.
Photo’s will be posted sometime in the future (I hope!). If you attended the Reunion and would like to leave some comments.. please feel free….
