Golden high school reunion - where are you, class of 1975?

They are wanted for a 50-year reunion in March of students from Inverell High School in the New England region.

And just seven people have the job of tracking down those who attended the school between first form (Year 7) in 1970 and sixth form (Year 12) in 1975.

Mick McCluskey, who now lives on the Gold Coast, is organising the event with six former classmates who still live in the town.

He told our colleague from the Inverell Times that it has been a difficult task trying to track everyone down.

"We've actually only been able to find about 15 or 20 of them at this stage," Mick said.

"A lot of the females are married, so it's hard trying to find them under a different surname.

"We're still working out ways on how to spread the word.

"We've used social media platforms such as Facebook to find out where people may be living, but it is still proving to be a big task.

"Robyn Austin is one of our group there locally and she's been trying to get it out on the radio and a few other avenues."

Activities planned for the big weekend include a meet and greet at the Inverell RSL Club on March 30, 2024.

There will be a stand-up meal at the club in the evening and a breakfast at the Inverell Pioneer Village on the Sunday.

The reunion will include a positive and fun update on each ex-student, kept to a maximum of 100 words.

"The reunion will be a great weekend to rekindle friendships. Partners are welcome to attend the weekend's activities," Mick told the Inverell Times.
