Our 2023 centenary reunions kicked off with a very special Walsh Club Luncheon at The Glasshouse Caulfield for students who left Kilvington 50 or more years ago. Guests were treated to a wonderful presentation by our Junior School leaders who spoke about why it's important to recognise the achievements of the past to help shape a successful future.
To commemorate Kilvington’s 100-year history, the leaders delivered handwritten messages from current students in Years 2 to 6 to each Kilvonian, thanking them for their individual contribution to Kilvington’s culture and history. This was a wonderful moment for all, connecting students from the past and present.
The next Walsh Club gathering will take place on Friday 6 October in the Sport Centre at Kilvington. All alumni from the Class of 1972 and earlier cohorts are warmly invited to attend. You can book your ticket here.
We held the 40 and 45 Year Reunion early in Term 2 for Classes of 1983 and 1978. The Kilvington Sport Centre was well-attended and had alumni travel from regional areas and even interstate to attend. Thank you to those Kilvonians who made such a special effort to join us and catch up with former classmates.
It was a lively get-together at the 30 and 35 Year Reunion, where the Classes of 1993 and 1988 reconnected with each other and shared lots of laughs and stories.
There was a lot of reminiscing about sporting pursuits, in particular, netball competitions. This led to a wonderful (and loud) performance of the Kilvington School chant. Eowyn Robertson (nee Pepper, Class of 1988) even wore her school blazer and beloved beret, providing the group a blast from the past.
A big thank you to past staff member, Ann Cleghorn, and current staff members, Kerryn Warburton and Helen Cole, for dropping in to catch up with the Kilvonians.
Most recently we welcomed the Classes of 2003 and 1998 to their 20 and 25 Year Reunion. A highlight of the event was a school tour conducted by current students, including a visit to the ‘dungeons’ in Dalton Hall where many happy memories were made.
The guests were also delighted to reconnect with past staff members Ann Cleghorn, Ann Dillon and current staff member Kerryn Warburton who popped in to say hello.
We look forward to welcoming the following cohorts to their reunions.
