18 Month Reunion Our 2019 alumni returned to campus to celebrate their 18-month Reunion. There were lots of familiar faces, stories to share and new discoveries on campus – particularly, tours of the new Meg Melville Science Innovation Centre, led by Head of Department Brenton Marlow, proved very popular! The group enjoyed catching up and sharing stories with their former Head of Year, Sean Ebert. This event was proudly supported by the Penrhos Alumni Committee.
Alumni reunions and events are a fantastic opportunity to rekindle old friendships, take a walk down memory lane and catch up with your Penrhos peers.
10 Year Reunion Our Class of 2011 recently returned to campus for their 10-year reunion. The night was filled with laughter, babies and lots of fun! The evening started with a tour of the College, the group had the opportunity to view some of the newer buildings, including the stateof-the-art Meg Melville Science Innovation Centre. The opening of the time capsules the group buried in the Margaret Way Courtyard 10 years ago was a real highlight for all!
Alumni Soiree Thursday, 29 July
40 Year Reunion 40 years on, the Class of 1981 came back to Penrhos to enjoy a night of reminiscing, music from the 80s and catch-ups with old friends! Our Old Girls re-traced their footsteps in a campus tour, explored new areas and buildings, and marvelled at the newly-completed Meg Melville Science Innovation Centre and incredible Creative Arts and Design Centre. We were particularly pleased to also welcome back some of our 1981 boarders for a tour of the new Menai Boarding House.

Shakers and Stirrers Our annual Shakers and Stirrers event with Wesley College was held in February, at the Windsor Hotel. The event returned a record turnout in an evening filled with music and excitement as Wesley Old Boys and Penrhos Old Girls reconnected through their shared history. Another great success and a night to remember for all.
