25.01.2022 I just realised, Saturday 29th is AFL Grand Final Day; what a dilemma especially if Collingwood make it!! I hope Picton Bowlo has big tellies.

25.01.2022 I don’t suppose anyone has photos or Bawamarra photos from back in the day. It would be nice to see them.

24.01.2022 Don’t forget on the 29th - Nametags!! Dunno about you but my memory is a little hazy these daysDon’t forget on the 29th - Nametags!! Dunno about you but my memory is a little hazy these days

24.01.2022 Please, please check this out book now if you haven’t already so.

24.01.2022 Hopefully this works

24.01.2022 Just for the fun of it, let’s have a Spelling Bee at the Bowlo. Remember them from early days??

23.01.2022 We were discussing the Miles family recently: the photo attached reminds me of Peter’s Real Estate Agency next to Fishburn’s Theatre where quite a few of us spent Jaffa-Rolling Saturday afternoons.

22.01.2022 No hurry, any ideas for further get togethers down the track? After the new PHS is constructed and opened maybe?No hurry, any ideas for further get togethers down the track? After the new PHS is constructed and opened maybe?

20.01.2022 Probably already booked out for our Reunion in September but worth a try

19.01.2022 Thirlmere Tahmoor Roosters had a win over Picton Magpies I see.

19.01.2022 Getting closer!

19.01.2022 Would anyone know the whereabouts of Greg Walker from Douglas Park? He commenced at PHS in 1962. He had a younger brother (I can’t remember his name) and possibly a sister.

18.01.2022 For Nostalgia sake I shall be taking the train into Circular Quay via Central and then travelling by Ferry to Taronga Zoo; no day and time at this stage but if you are interested please let me know.

18.01.2022 Does anyone know the whereabouts or contact details of the Landrigan kids from Thirlmere back in the day?

18.01.2022 In addition to my previous post:- if you’re an Early Years pupil please, please contact Rae Dutton well in advance. Not only with that give an indication of attendees it will also be beneficial if the fees are paid before the function. Thanks, Kim.

18.01.2022 There will be a guided tour of PHS at 0850 on the Saturday of our Reunion Lunch. It will be the last chance for a lot of us to revisit the school before it is demolished. Interested in the tour? If so let Rae Dutton know or me via this page.

17.01.2022 it is now only 21 days - 3 weeks - fortnight + to the Big 60!!

17.01.2022 Rae Dutton has just informed me of some very sad news: the passing of Heidi Setchfield née Twarloh in New Zealand. Everyone from our era would have very clear memories of Heidi - one always knew when she was close by. Condolences to Fred and Mary.

16.01.2022 Does anyone have photos of the new PHS development to post?

15.01.2022 Sadly, Ross Bull has passed.

14.01.2022 Well, I reckon at this time in 14 days some of the more ancient ones amongst us will be nodding off into NanaNapLand

14.01.2022 Would anybody have information as to whereabouts of Eric Easterbrook and how I could contact him? Thanks from Kim H.

12.01.2022 Does anyone know the whereabouts of a fellow PHS Student from the 60s - Greg Walker from Douglas Park? Had a younger brother, Neville (?).

12.01.2022 Barry Gercken, Clare is on the left

11.01.2022 Rae Dutton has advised that on the Saturday of the October long weekend there will be a meetup for PHS students 1965-1970 at Bargo Sportsground from 10am to Noon $5.00 then dinner at Picton Bowlo from 6pm, $55.00.

11.01.2022 Ruth Millie is a current teacher at PHS and is seeking past photos or our school. I reckon there’d be one or two out there so please feel free to post.

11.01.2022 If my memory is correct wasn’t this originally the name of Alan White’s cafe near Davo’s Pub?

10.01.2022 The 29th of September is sneaking up on us. Just a reminder, if you haven’t already done so please forward the money for lunch at Picton Bowlo to Rae Dutton.

10.01.2022 I apologise if I have misled people about the Bowls Club Lunch on 29th September: I have conferred with Rae Dutton (Cooke) and that get together is limited to The Early Years i.e. 1958 to 1964 inclusive. If you scroll down on the page you will find where Terry Gibbs is organising a function for later years. Again, my apologies. Kim

10.01.2022 Can we postpone the Big 60 as it looks like Collingwood is a dead cert for the Grand Final?

10.01.2022 Just been in touch with Rae Dutton via email and Rae informed me that we have 100 bookings with possibly more to come for Lunch on the 29th.Just been in touch with Rae Dutton via email and Rae informed me that we have 100 bookings with possibly more to come for Lunch on the 29th.

09.01.2022 Stopped off in Bargo to say g’day to Fred Twarloh only to learn that he retired 12 months ago and is now doing the Grey Nomad Thing. Oh well, next time

07.01.2022 I have just been informed by Sharon Quinlan, née Ecclestone, that her sister, Maureen has passed away.

04.01.2022 Rae Dutton has just sent out an email letting us know that Tom Sumsky, a former teacher at PHS, has passed away. He was at PHS in 62 before transferring out; if memory serves me correctly he moved to Grabben Gullen, north of Goulburn but not sure to which school.

03.01.2022 Rae has just informed me that we now have 135 bookings for lunch on the 29th!!Rae has just informed me that we now have 135 bookings for lunch on the 29th!!

02.01.2022 Does anyone on this page have any information as to what became of Colin Scobie?

02.01.2022 Is anyone out there having trouble posting to this page. I have set it to Public but, then again, I’m a bit of a computer dill!

02.01.2022 Any locals from Picton, Tahmoor etc. want to catch up for coffee sometime during the week? Venue and time I shall leave to locals.
