Villiers Past Pupils Reunion Dinner 2016 held Saturday 21-May-2016 View of the Hotel in the Strand Hotel Ennis rd, Limerick
Greetings all! This is a short summary to remember a great night before it's all been forgotten! Special thanks to the then Past Pupils Committee who helped out, and were there at the end Hugh Fogerty, Adrienne Engert, and Gerald Griffin - thank you all! Invitations were issued to former headmaster, Thomas Hardy, and current Headmistress, Jill Storey. Unfortunately Thomas had a prior engagement and was unable to attend. We were delighted to have the company of retired teachers Geoff Griffin, Dr Richard Johnston, and Brian Lillis. Lists of attendees are shown towards the end of the report. With a higher cost Hotel this time round, we could not sponsor some of our guests, but broke even nonetheless. Our large-group Reunions are usually held every eight years, but this one was only four years after the previous one in 2012. The class canvassed for this one to be held and they attended in good numbers. Enjoy the photos on the following pages, and many many thanks to those who supplied them! Best regards to all John Alfred Chairman, Villiers Past Pupils Reunion Committee ver: 1.0
