DAISY IRWIN-DREW (1962)

In August 2022 Glenhuntly Athlete Club held its 100 years celebrations. 

Daisy Irwin-Drew (King) was was elevated from Life Membership to Legend status which was a great honour for her as the club has only four legends. 

Daisy was also a House Captain at McKinnon, and we have her blazer pocket on display in the MERC at Main Campus.

WEDDING MILESTONE

Lindsay Peacock (Class of 1964) and Norma Peacock nee White (Class of 1965) are coming up to 30 years of marriage together. Both second time around. 

Norma plays tennis 3 days a week, and Lindsay volunteers at the Robina Hospital and the Gold Coast Light Horse Education Museum. They are both fit and loving life on the "Goldie"!
