60th, 50th and 40th Class Year Reunions will be held later in the year for the Class Years of 1951, 1961 & 1971 (respectively) which will see many Old Boys to return to the school to reconnect with their alma mater.
Reunions have been very successful at the school since 2005 with decade reunions having now been held for the 1920’s, 1930’s, 1940’s. Class Year Reunions have been held for 1955, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1959 and 1960 with the 1962 boys getting together in 2007 along with 1964-67 year groups.
However, the 1951 and 1961 Class years are yet to meet so the Foundation is excited about bringing these groups back together. Equally so, we are looking forward to establishing our ‘40 Years On’ reunions starting with the 1971 Old Boys.
If you started Otago Boys’ High School in the 3rd form during these years make contact with the Foundation office to register your interest to attend.
Calling all Old Boys’ from the Class Year of 1951 to join us for two exciting days catching up with old school friends and reconnecting with your school. Programme will be launched shortly but do register early for this event.
Dates have been set for 15 & 16 August 2011. Please register your interest by clicking here
The year which saw the baby boom peak with 65,000 babies being born in New Zealand. It was the end of capital punishment in New Zealand although the cane was still being flung by Rector Edward (Teddy) Aim, and the first Golden Kiwi Ticket was sold. But it was the year those in the Class Year of 1961 started at OB’s and it is time to bring you all back.
Dates have been set for 30 Sept & 1 Oct 2011. Please register your interest by clicking here
John Lennon, James Taylor and Michael Jackson are all at the top of their game musically, Apollo 14 landed on the moon and an anti Vietnam War protest saw 35,000 take to the New Zealand Streets. Some of you may even have wagged school to attend the march but we hope you won’t wag this event.
Dates have been set for 9 & 10 Sept 2011. Please register your interest by clicking here

Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty years ahead
When others shall be singing here where once our voices led
Shall memory rise and call to mind the days that long have sped
As the years go rolling by.
The years have rolled by so time to refresh the memory and reconnect with your old school friends….
