A NIGHT OF WARMTH AND FRIENDSHIP

Saturday 2 September brought to an end the official 125th celebrations. Over 820 members of the Girls Grammar School family met together in the City Hall for what proved to be a most wonderful evening for renewing friendship, for engendering fellowship and for having fun. The room glowed with a warmth that continued throughout the entire evening. The Honourable Dean Wells, MLA Minister for Education, was the official guest. it was wonderful to welcome to the official tables the members of the Board of Trustees, Mrs Hancock's predecessor, Miss Nancy Shaw and her brother Bob, Miss Thalia Kennedy a former student of the School who is well known to many of us as a former Head of IPswich Girls Grammar School, Dr and Mrs Peter Lennox, Headmaster of BGS, Mr and Mrs Howard Stack, Chairman BGS Board of Trustees, and Mr and Mrs Hugh Rose, Headmaster of Toowoomba Grammar. The program for the evening included a variety of presentations and thanks must go to the girls of the School who so willingly participated, as well as former students, Natalie MacCormick and Madeline Cocolas. So many people contributed to the evening that it could not have helped but be a success. The Committee dreamed it, dared it and did it and the occasion will be remembered for years to come.
