1960-1965 Reunion Dinner

On Friday evening 7 August 2015 former Kilbreda students who completed their education here from 1960 to 1965 gathered for a Reunion Dinner hosted by the Past Pupils’ Network Committee.

Helen Brockway Wilson from the class of 1963 was motivated by her reconnection to Kilbreda and her admiration of Year 12 students visiting East Timor in lieu of “Schoolies” week to craft a poem, “The Tower”. The poem was the focus of the evening and was warmly received. A copy of the poem was presented to all in attendance as a memento of the evening. It is also included in this newsletter. Three of the Year 12 East Timor Travellers, Ashleigh, Hannah and Jess, attended the dinner and spoke of their motivation for their decision to take on this project. A sum of $433.00 was donated towards the project.

Lively conversation continued throughout the evening. Many renewed friendships and all travelled down memory lane sharing stories which created much laughter.

Congratulations to all involved in the planning and running of this very successful event.
