Class of '60 - 50 Year Reunion
by Peter Trebble
A team of Old Boys from the SACS 1960 Matric year, visited the High School and attended the first assembly of the year on 13 January 2010. This visit to the High School and thereafter to the Old Boys Union Pavilion "The Brodie Room" was arranged to kick off their 50th Reunion year. Following on the visit to The Brodie Room for tea and biscuits, a special breakfast was then enjoyed at The Gardener's Cottage (in the Montebello grounds adjoining the school).
Those that attended were:
Back row from left to right: - Brendon Wides, Gerald Green, Ralph Murinik, Peter Trebble, Jimmy Warner, Ian Bernhardi
Seated: - Kenneth Marcus, Richard Taylor (UK based), Jimmy McQueen, Guy Nicol, Chris Hutchings
The 1960 SACS Old Boys have enjoyed many formal reunions over the years. Additionally and quite remarkably, many of these Old Boys have kept in touch closely over the years, and still meet regularly for social get togethers in Cape Town - roughly 3 - 4 times per year at Cape Peninsula restaurants.
"The First Team at Newlands" as this Old Boys year group have called themselves, were the first matriculants at SACS in Newlands. John Ince (Executive Director of the SACS Old Boys Union) was in fact a teacher at the High School in that year - his first year of teaching.
The first assembly for that year was held on the De Villiers field as the school hall did not yet exist.....The year was known as "The Great Trek" - the move from Orange Street Cape Town to Newlands.
The final 1960 - 50 year reunion big bash will take place on the 9th, 10th, 11th & 12th December 2010 with a full contingent visiting the High School for the last assembly of this commemorative year being the focal point of a planned programme of events over the 4 days. A special visit for the cocktail party to be held at The Brodie Room is definitely on the agenda!
