THISTLELONIANS

WELCOME BACK

Another busy year ahead for the Thistlelonians, as we prepare for several special occasions when former students and staff of McKinnon High/Secondary College return to their school and catch up with old friends.

UPCOMING CELEBRATIONS

Sunday 5 May

A special celebration when Principal Mrs Pitsa Binnion invites the class of 1969 back to honour their 50th Anniversary of graduating from McKinnon. An afternoon tea followed by a tour of the school will reignite old memories.

Saturday 26 October

The classes of 1959 (the original McKinnon graduating class) 1964, 1969, 1974, 1979, 1989, 1999, 2009, 2014 will gather in the hall, take a tour of the school and catch up with old school mates.

Invitations to these events are sent via email/SMS. We are missing many contact details, so if you know anyone likely to be an ex student who hasn’t updated their current contact information, this can be done via our website.

STUDENT AWARDS

For more than 20 years, the Thistlelonians have been providing special awards to outstanding Year 9 students selected by their Student Managers for General excellence and contributions to the college.

Our most recent award winners were presented at the college Presentation Night in December and we were delighted to congratulate Jessica Ginsberg (absent on the night), Matthew O’Brien and Michael Yang.
