Almost 100 of the 1995 cohort descended on Ben Kooyman's Depot Brewery in Artarmon last Friday. Anticipation was high with such an amazing rollout for a 30 Year reunion. After a 10-year hiatus (due to COVID), name tags were required as the hair lines have thinned, glasses appeared and hair has greyed. There were, however, some incredible gents who seem to be defying time like Benjamin Button. 

Once the drinks vouchers were distributed, and a few tasty ales started to flow, the night was a brilliant mix of remembering the school days and catching up on what life has been like for the past 30 years. 

We toasted our absent friends which was poignant, and also important to mention the hard work being done by the OKGA with the Spark program which offers support for all Old Boys and their family members doing it tough. 

We were also graced with the presence of our effervescent school captain, Johnny Richards, which was a special treat. There were even calls for an annual casual gathering. 

The goal for the 35th Reunion is to build on this momentum and keep engaging with a great bunch of lads.
