Term 1 and Upcoming Events (Photos and registration)

On the 1st of March, OPGA hosted the 10 Year Reunion for the Classes of 2013 and 2014 in Mornington.

Attended by over 60 alumni members, it was a fantastic event with many memories shared across the evening. Thank you to our alumni ambassadors for helping spread the word about this special milestone. Photos from the event can be found at www.oldpenconnect.com.au

OPGA hosted the 30/40 Year Reunion for the Classes of 1994 and 1984 on Saturday the 23rd of March.

Over 60 alumni members came back to school and joined us in the Harry Macdonald Pavilion for drinks and canapes, as well as a school tour.

We want to thank Chris Dickman '84 and Matthew McKenzie '94 for being our class ambassadors and ensuring many of their peers were aware of this event. OPGA wants to remind everyone about the importance of updating your details in our database, to stay connected both to OPGA and your peers. Head to www.opga.com.au/update-details
