We are also pleased to inform you that an 18 page booklet has been prepared by a former hostel master, Gregor Macaulay, recording historical information regarding the hostel over the past 150 years. A copy of this booklet will be placed in your registration pack.

Notable Registrations

It is pleasing to see that John Billcliff and his wife Glenda will be making the trip down from Nelson for the celebrations. John was a master at Campbell House from 1967-69, long time Science and Chemistry teacher at OBHS, and a successful coach of the 1st Cricket XI for many years.

Also attending will be the well known Billy Trewern, who managed School House from 1980-84, taught Science and Physics at OBHS, and was a very successful golf coach for a number of years. Both gentleman are making a special effort to join us all on this special occasion.
