Hi all, At various times at the last reunion we talked about bringing the reunions down to every two years. That being the case we would then be looking to catch up in a couple of weeks plus 12 months. Long way round for saying 2026 :0) . If you would like to do that, let me know and we can start tossing around some ideas. As usual we'd probably aim for the OYU reunion at Leeton RSL then Gala Day followed by our own dinner that night...probably at the Hydro. If there's enough interest I might try and get in early with the Hydro as we were beaten to most of the accommodation there last year. We had a really good catch up with the local group yesterday here in Wagga with eight of us and quite a few apologies......we aim to have another one in late May over at Narrandera...if you reckon you'd be in the area then do let me know as I have a local email group I send these info emails out to. Oh and happy birthday to Bruce Ingrey today - I am sure we all hope you have a great day John

Hi All, Hope this finds you well. If you have been following FB you will have seen lots of the below email. I won’t be going but feel free to go. I do hope to get another local get together going in October and hopefully in Temora but more on that later.

Firstly I would like to thank all ten of you for offering to act as peer year coordinators for your respective starting year cohorts. We only have two weeks before bookings close for the NRL Grand Final luncheon to be held at the Wagga Rules Club on 27th September. A great opportunity to catch up with some of your mates from 55-65 years ago while listening to three outstanding Yanconians who excelled in each of three of the major winter sports in Australia. The Foundation would appreciate it if you were able to push out this opportunity over the next week to try and muster up final numbers to ensure the day is a great success.

In 1987, he moved to Canberra and made 41 top-grade appearances for the Raiders from 1989, including two grand finals. He then moved to St George, playing 112 games over five seasons. Dave concluded his NRL career with the Roosters, making 58 appearances, bringing his NRL first-grade game total to 211. He finished his career in the UK Super League with Leeds, playing 33 games. Overall, Dave participated in five first-grade grand finals (four consecutively), attaining one victory with Canberra in 1990. Dave became part of State of Origin folklore during the 1995 series when he went blow-for-blow with Billy Moore, endearing himself to Blues fans forever. He appeared for NSW 9 times and represented Ireland at the 2000 Rugby League World Cup Peter Green (1987-1992) Peter stands out as one of the few Yanconians to have participated in three University Shield finals, achieving victories in both 1990 and 1992. A naturally gifted athlete, Peter excelled in all sports during his time at Yanco and made history as the school's first-ever AFL player. At the end of 1992, he joined the Sydney Swans, but a knee injury forced him to miss the entire 1993 season. In 1994, Peter entered the AFL draft and was selected by Carlton as the 35th pick, though he only played one game for the senior team. The following year, he moved to Central Districts in the SAFL, where he spent three seasons competing in the top grade.. Jim Douglas (1952-1956) Jim was born in Sydney and attended Yanco Ag for five years and School Captain in his final year. Upon leaving school he won a scholarship with the Rosella Co. and undertook a two-year course at Hawkesbury Agricultural College. Jim then moved to Melbourne and eventually linked up with the Melbourne Club in the Rugby Victoria's Premier Club Competition. In 1961 he debuted for Victoria and the following year ran out for his state against the All Blacks. Jim was then invited to the Wallaby trials for the return tour to New Zealand.

Hi All, I thought I should write and thank the school on everyone’s behalf for their hospitality.

Hi All, What a great weekend. Started off at School on Friday for morning tea, then a McCaughey walking tour then on the bus and around the school and then down to the Middle Beach for the Beach carnival and lunch and following the Ironman race we returned to school for a walking tour. Many thanks to the YAHS staff who hosted us and made us feel special. Friday night for the OYU Dinner - a great night and good to catch up with some of our older peers. Saturday we had a leisurely coffee catch up and then out to School for Gala Day. Lots of nostalgic walks around the school. The Graffiti in the feed shed adjacent to the silos is still there and viewed some very old names up on the rafters. That's about all that's left now of the farm from our day and I don't think the silos are filled with pea trash anymore . Mid-afternoon it was back to town to get ready for our dinner at the Hydro. A good roll up and a most enjoyable evening that finished for some of us around 11pm. I hope Col Semmler had his pencil in hand jotting down some of the reminisces to add to our memoirs. A most enjoyable round of speeches and reminisces. I believe a couple of others (no names) might have batted on until the wee small hours. Sunday morning we again all met up at Stir (coffee) for breakfast and last farewells. Hopefully everyone had a safe trip back. We did officially agree to doing the 65th in 2029 but there were some later suggestions going around about having something in three years so watch this space. Had apologies from Graeme Foley, John Irwin, Steve Aughey, Col Smeeth, Mark Briggs, Adrian Varcoe, Keith Broomfield. Otherwise between the two events and besides myself, we had Angus, John Fowler, John Catterson, Kel Furner, Dave Stott, Col Semmler, Rod Martin, Don Dyce, Bill Moncrieff, Doug Williams, Dave Sanderson, Geoff Fox, Chris Davis, John Hartnett, Al Wetten, Grahame Morris, John Rees, Chris Davey, Neil Crawford, Greg Brain, Paul McMahon and Pete Fraser. Total of 23…so not too bad and would have been 30 if all the apologies had made it so I think we did pretty well.
