AVONHEAD SCHOOL IS 60 YEARS YOUNG! AND IS HAVING A REUNION!
Avonhead School started in May, 1959 and educated thousands of students over 60 years. Some of our 'first day' pupils have approached us and asked to have an opportunity to (a 'low-key') get together at the school.
To celebrate our 60th Birthday, we would like to invite you to join us on: Saturday, 23 November
Planned events include tours of the school with a slideshow of recent developments in the afternoon from 2pm-4pm, afternoon tea and an opportunity to catch up with others and a get-together at Riccarton Racecourse in the evening.
If you would like to come to the afternoon only, there is a $10 registration fee (non-refundable) which you can pay on-line. If you want to join us in the Evening at Riccarton Racecourse for a meal as well, it will cost you a further $60.00
We would love to have you join us if you have attended Avonhead School. Please tell others who may be interested.
