Good Scouts


Dug this out of a street library. Had never seen it before. I was a grunt in 1st Oatley Bay Sea Scouts from 1962 - 1965, so it was of considerable interest.

It was of even more interest when I found out how many other STHS 1969 lads are mentioned; the names of only those who distinguished themselves in scouting appear.

B - R - A - V - O - O - O !

I'll bring the book to our next STHS-1969 gathering.

STHS WEBSITE IS NO MORE

I have closed down the STHS1969 website. 

(This blog will continue.)

I looked at the statistics for site visitors and they were risible. 

It is now a waste of money to keep the STHS1969 website running.

Thank you to all those who contributed to that trove of priceless reminiscence.

All the material is backed up in my archives, not lost. 

Stephen 'Gumby' Gard.






Vale Leon Davis

 


From the STHS Journal, 1970

Sadly, the school has been advised by John Lewis ‘70OB that Leon Davis, the 1970 School Captain passed away last weekend. Leon’s funeral service is being held tomorrow = Thursday 30 July, 12.00 noon at Olsen’s Funeral Parlour Sutherland; 691 Old Princes Hwy, Sutherland, NSW.

Leon was an Oatley lad... another one of us gone.
