1975 Leaving Cert class reunion

A 30 year reunion of the 1975 Leaving Cert class took place on Sat 1 October 2005 in the Ferrycarrig Hotel, Wexford. The same hardworking committee of Pat Kelly, Andy O'Brien, John Crean and
Ben Bernie that had arranged the 25 year reunion 5 years earlier were responsible for a very successful night.
.
The evening began at St Peter's College where everyone assembled and Mass was celebrated in the college chapel by Fr James Finn PP. Afterwards the assembled group were given a tour of the college by the Principal, Mr. Pat Quigley. Many changes were noticed. The group of 40 then made their way to the Ferrycarrig hotel for a drinks reception followed by a lovely meal. Joining the classmates of 1975 were some of the teachers; Fr John O'Brien, Mr. Emmet Cullen, Mr. John Furlong and
Mr. John O'Neill. The evening passed quickly with reminiscences of days gone by and renewing of old friendships. Fr John O'Brien, Arthur O'Leary and Ben Bernie made short speeches.
.
It was a good night, everyone said we must do it again…….
