Now back in Switzerland, I want to take this opportunity to thank the organisers of the Reunion on the 1st May. What a wonderful and memorable evening! It was fantastic to see so many school friends again after such a long time.I am glad I was able to be there, despite 'volcanic ash' which jeopardised my trip.The evening just flew by and I hope that when the next reunion takes place I will be able to attend. The photos are great.

Had a lovely evening on May 1st, nice to see old faces and make new friends. A good time had by all, great photos.

Thank you very much for the May 1st re-union.
It was a great success.
All those who were there to whom I have spoken about it realised how much work must have been done by the organisers.
I am about to email you a copy the first number of the school magazine.

Enjoyable evening & good to meet old friends & make new ones.

Thank you to everyone that organised the May 1st reunion it was good fun, I brought along my sister and brother in law (Patricia Waite and Derek Swift) who attended Pembroke Grammar in the 40's and 50's and they were convinced there wouldn't be anyone there that they knew but they met far more people than I did, I think that was the only disappointing bit, there were so few from the sixties intakes, where were you all guys? It was great to meet up with a few fellow pupils though and I hope we can do it all again one day as I kept thinking all the way home after the weekend of things I should have asked those I met. It certainly looked like a good night was had by all. If anyone wants to contact me they can do so on carolzammit@aol.com

This will be lengthy because I have so much to say. I am not given to exaggeration but Fantastic quite well sums up the 1st of May event and I am so glad that I made the effort to attend. Whilst I was involved from the outset in the creation of the web-site, I cannot claim any credit for the reunion - but the team who did organise it deserve all the praise now lauded upon them. When the subject of reunions comes up, in every-day conversation, most people will frown and tend to be derogatory - however my experience has been nothing but good. The two previous PDGS reunions held at the Quins were most enjoyable, but this current one exceeded all expectations. I regret that I missed the opportunity to speak with so many of those present and it became obvious that five hours is not long enough.
Once again many congratulations to the team and I hope all the hard work of the past months has not deterred them from organising another. The Friday school visit started the nostalgia and was a suitable preamble to the actual event. The photo badges were brilliant and I think Roger Mac deserves special mention for this and the slide show, the wall mounted photographs the display of school uniforms and the room decorations just added that special touch; icing on the cake as they say.
I would most heartily endorse the call from other respondents - for a list of attendees and especially if possible with some contact detail. For my part I may be contacted here at gregralph1@btinternet.com 01873-860316 or in Australia at gregoryralph@bigpond.com 0061 8 9204 4994 and would be very happy to hear from anyone from school.
Once again - very well done team. I did not hear one critical comment on the night and, if I had, it would have been rebuffed.
I have sent the photos DJ and I took on the night to Roger for inclusion on thepenvro website and I hope that if we missed you - you will forgive us.
Cheers everyone - Greg

Would love to get in touch with anyone from my year.
Back in St Davids, Pembrokeshire after 17 years in Canada.
Those were happy days and no idea what life lay ahead.
Am in touch with Sue Morris and Christine Jenkins.

Congratulations to the team of organisers! The reunion was a great success.
When you've had a chance to catch your breath, could you please put a list of names of all reunion attendees on the website?
I know I missed some old acquaintances, and probably failed to recognise others! I daresay I'm not alone in this.
The Penvro website is great : I find it addictive. I log on for a quick fix, & can't resist browsing through the array of material. It's pure nostalgia .
Keep up the good work,

Reunion was very enjoyable

Really enjoyed May 1st Reunion. Will look forward to the next one.

Excellent website,brings back many fond memories, and a few sad ones.
Reunion was amazing - shame there were not many attending from the early sixties. Well done Lauren David and crew!!!

I would like to congratulate everyone that was involved in organising the Grammar School reunion on Saturday, May 1st. Many old friendships were revived, it was an excellent event and the five hours just flew past. The Penvro site is a superb idea and it is good to see it so well supported. Again, many thanks and I look forward to seeing the photographs taken by David and Greg.

I had a fantastic evening. Thank you so much to those who gave up their time to organise, they did an absolutely wonderful job. It was so good to meet up with people I hadn't seen for a long time. Please don't leave it too long before there is another.

It was great to meet so many people that I hadn't seen since leaving school in 1960. I was a little concerned that I would not recognise any one and they would not recognise me. Had a wonderful time reliving past times. Hope this is not the last time we hold a reunion. David Esmond

Thank you for a wonderful evening on 1 May. It was so good to be back in PD meeting up with so many friends. Many thanks for all the hard work organising such a successful event - well done and well worth the round trip from Oxfordshire. Thank You Beryl Morbey
