Our Notices Page
While attending a primary school reunion, it was discovered that a couple of the original group had passed away and none of us had known. Some of the people attending had once been close friends of the deceased and would have liked to have had the chance to show their respects. I myself only became aware by accident, of the passing of a friend's father - this family had almost been my second home when I was younger.
Anyway the idea to set up this area was born. If you become aware of information that old schoolfriends might like to know, please pass it on to us & we will post it here.
Births, marriages, deaths, funerals, obituaries can all be posted here as can genealogy notices for those who use the genealogy areas of this site.

Genealogy
There are no genealogy notices.
*Expanatory Note: Reunions are listed by their graduating year. You do not generally have to have actually been in that final class, it's just a way of identifying the group. So a High School class of 2000 for example, will include all those who did Year 10/Form 4 in 1998.
