1911 - 2011 100 Years

Following the reunion in Auckland in 2009, the reunion date and locations have been set for Sydney for February 2011.

We are looking forward to an exciting weekend in an historic year.

Friday 25 February - Evening Our reunion weekend will begin in one of Sydney’s historic pubs, many steeped with maritime tradition. We are yet to finalise a specific venue, but will advise shortly. Saturday 26 February We booked for dinner the upper deck of the SS South Steyne. In 1938 she steamed via the Suez Canal to Australia from the UK to commence work on the famous ’7 Mile Run’ from the City to Manly. She is moored under Pyrmont Bridge in Darling Harbour. Sunday 27 February See Sydney Harbour in the afternoon on the 1874 SV James Craig (not under sail). Captain Ken Edwards, ex Sydney pilot known to many, is the vessel’s staff captain. He has agreed to be on duty that day. This outing depends on if we can get the numbers.
