Never forgotten
As a large School community with a 100+ year history and over 2,000 students and 13,000 alumni, a sad part of any such community is the loss of friends, colleagues and peers that invariably occurs as a part of life.
We record with sadness the passing of the following community members and extend our sincere sympathy to their families and friends.
