Welcome to SHS Reunion Website!

4th September 2010 was a huge success and we thank each and every one of you for your support! The night was so successful, that we heeded the cries of "more" and "there just wasn't enough time!". So watch this space for...

'Class of '85 Reunion Encore'!

To be held over one weekend in either September, October or November, 2011.

The venue currently being considered is 'Bestbrook Mountain Resort'.

So for those of you who kicked themselves for not coming, well here is your second chance! And remember...you are welcome to attend this event if you were a student of Springwood State High School (Qld) and attended in Yr 10 (1983), Yr 11 (1984), and/or Yr 12 (1985).

After Party Celebrations at Cloudland


Well it's less than 3 months away now before the big night. David has made enquiries with Cloudland nightclub in Brisbane, as somewhere to go once the reunion has finished.

As a committee, we are not organising this after party event as such, but thought that we could get the ball rolling. David has contacted Cloudland to see if they are able to cater for the number of people, and they assured him that it would be no problem.

As far as getting to and from the venue, it will the responsibility of the individual/couples to organise this and obviously do so in a responsible way, i.e. no drinking and driving, etc.

For those who are thinking of going along, the dress standard for the venue is:

Ladies must be smart cocktail dress and men must have enclosed dress shoes, dress pants, collared button up dress shirt.

Numbers are looking great for the night, and we're still getting requests and people coming out of the woodwork who are wanting to come. I think we're going to get quite a lot of last minute interest and requests for invititations.

And lastly....another reminder about the RSVP date of 30th June, 2010!

Reunion Article - Albert & Logan News


The above article was in the Albert & Logan News, for Wednesday 19/8/09 edition.

Unfortunately, they didn't include the actual links for facebook, or the blog website, nor a contact number for those people who don't have internet. I requested that another small notice be put into the community section advising of the missed information, which went into Albert & Logan News, Wednesday 26/8/09 edition, which still didn't have link addresses, but included a contact number.

I don't think it's done what we though it would, and that is, bring to the attention of ex-students, the reunion event. I did however receive a phone call from Carol Humphries, who was and still is a teacher at Springwood State High School. She has offered to contact teachers from the Class of 85, whom she knows to see if any would be interested in attending.
