Blaisdon Reunion
Today, 28 August 2005, we held a magnificent and appropriate 70th
Anniversary reunion at St Peter's Church and Church Hall, in Gloucester. At
the Mass a most moving homily was preached by Father John Gilheney SDB, one
time Head of the Blaisdon school.
Thanks to the super human efforts of Charles Springett, Blaisdon President,
a very large number sat down to a wonderful meal. This group included many
Past Pupils, including Alastair Bourne all the way from New Zealand,
Blaisdon Salesians, Blaisdon Care Staff, Enfield Old Boys and former Crusade
of Rescue ladies from the Feltham Home, and we were privileged to have Jim
Richards, Director of the Catholic Children's Society (Westminster) and his
wife and another Lady to represent what was previously "The Crusade of
Rescue" and many wives and children of Blaisdon Past Pupils.
Our heartfelt thanks to the St Peter's family for giving us such a great
welcome and use of their beautiful church and other amenities.
Let the following pictures tell their own story.
