40 YEAR TIMBERTOP REUNION 1
2
The Terms 2 and 3 1976 tansition-era Timbertop group gathered for a reunion at Timbertop on Saturday 9th July. Ian Darling (P’79) described it as: “An event full of great joy and fascination and emotion - possibly matching the incredible time we all spent together at that school in the hills all those years ago. From a class of 135 students in 1976, 60 middle aged men and women (yes, technically we’re 'middle aged' now!) emerged from the shadows of their own very individual and diverse lives - and would soon be laughing and telling tales from the past, effortlessly morphing into those wide-eyed and fresh-faced little 14-year-old school kids we once all knew.” It was a memorable weekend with people travelling great distances to be there. Many thanks to those in the year group involved with organising and those who contributed in various ways during the reunion. Particular thanks to Fred Kininmonth (M’79) who co-ordinated the reunion.
