From the President  

Another COVID-19 impacted year means that we have not been able to hold our February luncheon or meeting. Hopefully as things settle we will be able to gather again, but we are always. mindful of the health and wellbeing of all Old Virgilians. 

A reminder about the AGM on Tuesday March 29. With the move of Secretary Declan Waddington to Melbourne we are seeking new blood for our committee. If you would like to discuss this opportunity please email me at bradley.canning@catholic.tas.edu.au
