Box Hill High School
Richard WELCH (North-Eastern Metropolitan) (09:52): Last week I had the absolute pleasure of attending Box Hill High School’s 95th anniversary historical expo. They had on display uniforms and photographs from past years. I especially enjoyed seeing the circular that said in 1967 boys would have their grades downgraded for not getting their hair cut. There were former alumni and former principals. I was very pleased to speak about the essential role of state education in shaping our communities and our young people. It was a fantastic event. Congratulations to principal Kellie Ind for putting on such a fantastic performance. Hopefully in five years we will group again for the 100th.
