DINING IN STYLE

 I love posting photos of St Patrick's Girls enjoying themselves.  Today, it's a photo from Sheila Bulger Power.  On Wednesday, Sheila and her sister, Mary Bulger Corcoran, had a very pleasant dining experience at the Sheraton. Sheila, Mary and their late sister, Kaye Bulger Buckingham, all attended St Patrick's Convent Schools.  

Sheila and Mary at the Sheraton

Thanks Sheila for keeping in touch.  I am sure the food was good but I am equally sure that spending time together was even better.  Merry Christmas to both of you.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

They don't look like "Pensioners" but I suppose we have to believe what they are telling us.  

Happy Birthday to all you Glamorous Grads and may  you celebrate many more Happy Birthdays together.

MORE PICTURES FROM THE GRADS OF 73/74

This is another selection of photos from the 50th anniversary and 65th Birthday celebrations of this amazing group of classmates and friends. If you haven't been inside the school since it became Lakecrest, you will see quite a few changes.  One photo that I was delighted to see was the one of the ORIGINAL FLOORING!  Well, I guess that is down to Sr Immaculata.  Day after day, year after year, she stood at the front door and woe betide you if you didn't have your Rubber/Gaiter bag!  Plus, her Grade Six Class always had to keep the corridors clean and shining, mopping away before classes started. 😇 I am pretty sure I am not the only one who can tell a few tales about that!  

WOW!  That's the original flooring.😲

Thanks again, ladies.  I'll share the rest of the photos another day.  You definitely gave us a great tour of dear old St Patrick's with all it's changes. 

OH THOSE ST PATRICK'S GIRLS!

I am delighted to say those St Patrick's Girls are at it again! They just can't stop getting together and that is a beautiful thing.  I just wish I could be with them.😔

This picture was sent by Sheila BULGER Power and Pat HURLEY  McDonald. On 13 November 2024, they and some of their St Patrick's friends got together for a happy lunch at the Capital Hotel.  Here they are enjoying each others company - and the food too of course.  

The best kind of lunch.   Lunch with friends!

As Pat said "St Patrick's girls stick together". They definitely do, through thick and thin!   Long may that be so.  Thanks Pat and Sheila.  May God bless you both and all your (and my) beautiful friends there.

A DOUBLE CELEBRATION

Due to circumstances beyond my control, this post is long overdue and I apologize to Christine and friends for the delay. 

In September, Christine and her amazing group of schoolfriends held their 2024 gathering.  Christine told me it was a combined 50th Anniversary of graduating from St Patrick's  (1973-74)and a 65th Birthday party.

They certainly took loads of photos and, although Christine said I could chose some to post, I just can't do that.  I want to post them all! As there are so many pictures, I will post some today and others in days to come.  So here goes with the first ones!

These wonderful women are proof that School Friends are friends for life and that 'Once a St Patrick's Girl - always a St Patrick's Girl!'

Don't forget, plenty more to come so keep watching!  Thanks Christine and, ladies I am so sorry about the delay.
