We recently welcomed a group of old scholars and guests back to SPSC for History Unlocked: From the Archives Tour, hosted by the SPSC Student Historical Society.

The morning offered an opportunity to revisit some of the School’s most significant places and hear the memories and reflections of those who know them well.

Guests visited Old School House, Da Costa Dining Hall, the Chapel, Memorial Hall and Athelney House, sharing stories and recalling moments from their time at the School.

It was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with the School’s history and with one another.

The recent Combined Canberra Dinner was an enjoyable evening of social connection amongst old scholars and their guests from both St Peter’s College and Prince Alfred College.

It was also a great opportunity to hear from SPSC Headmaster Tim Browning and PAC Headmaster David Roberts, who shared insights into the Schools and the communities they lead.

Chapter dinners continue to strengthen the bonds that make both our communities so special, and we thank the event convenors for their support;
Tony Gill (WDK 1976) and John Carver (WDK 1974).
