Forthcoming Reunions
50th Anniversary Reunion – Fifth and Sixth Year in 1959-60
Friday 4 June 2010
The Development Office has sent initial letters to those who were in Fifth and Sixth Year in 1959-60 notifying them of the forthcoming 50th Anniversary Reunion. If you are in the Fifth Year group but did not leave until the following year you are welcome to attend both this reunion and the 2011 reunion should you wish. Likewise if you are in the Fifth or Sixth Year group and came last year, we would be delighted to see you again! Our view is that all are welcome and you should feel free to take the opportunity to catch up with as many friends as you would like.
Part of the success is down to valuable help from FPs in gathering names and addresses for their classmates. We are seeking help and would ask everyone to spread the word. If you know of someone not receiving Quadrangle, therefore not on our mailing list to receive news of the Reunion, please contact us with their details. We will be gathering as many names and addresses as possible to be able to send formal invitations out in early April.
60th Anniversary Reunion – Classes of '49 and '50
Friday 25 June 2010
David Harnden, Robbie Phillips and Bill Richardson contacted the Development Office to ask for assistance to gather together those from the Classes of '49 and '50 to celebrate their 60th Anniversary on leaving Heriot's. They were keen to hold the reunion at the School and the date of Friday 25 June has been set to fit in around the School's busy calendar. We are working on gathering names of those in the year groups and invitations will be sent out in March to all those we can contact.
25th Anniversary Reunion – Class of '85
Saturday 6 November
The 25th Anniversary Reunion is growing in popularity as a very informal and relaxed get-together which is enjoyed by all starting with a tour of parts of the School to break the ice and have school memories flooding back. A Drinks Reception is followed by a buffet dinner with plenty of time to catch up with classmates and former members of staff.
The Development Office is beginning work to find members of the Class of '85 for their 25th Anniversary Reunion as we are missing addresses for a large number of the group. If you know of someone not receiving Quadrangle, therefore not on our mailing list, please contact us with their details. Initial letters to those we do have will be sent out in the summer with general details and to ask for help in gathering names and addresses.
If you would like to arrange a reunion for other years, the Development Office will be happy to assist.
