Your Class Reunion

Class reunions are a warm and welcoming time when old school classmates can catch up and reconnect in a friendly environment. Class reunions are held at the School or offsite at a restaurant or bar depending on the group involved. There are opportunities to visit the School to see what has changed, and what hasn’t, and also to share and reflect on archival memorabilia from your time at Friends’.

With the passing of time, it is often the case that the School has not been provided with up to date contact details and one of the key pre-reunion tasks is to ‘find’ your classmates. If you would like to help with this task for any of the listed reunions above, and other reunion activities like setting up and sharing an online social group, or suggesting staff members your class would like to invite, please email us at stayconnected@friends.tas.edu.au.

Please note, it is our custom to share reunion photos with the School community after the event. If you would prefer not to have your photo shared you can just let us know anytime leading up to the event via stayconnected@friends.tas.edu.au, or simply tell us on the night.

If you have any queries at all about any of these reunion events please email stayconnected@friends.tas.edu.au. We look forward to reconnecting with all our alumni community members soon.
