GRAND REUNION 2024 

The 2024 Grand Reunion bookings are now open. Tickets are available here.

The 2024 Grand Reunion will be held at the McKinnon Road Campus on Saturday, 26th October, and will encompass ex-students and staff of McKinnon from the following years: 1959, 1964, 1969, 1974, 1979, 1984, 1994, 2004, 2014, 2019 and Covid catch-up groups 1990 and 1991.

We aim to include those year levels who missed out due to COVID over the next couple of years. Unfortunately, it's impossible to include all catch-ups in one year. Thank you for your understanding.

We would love your support and encourage you to tag classmates and attend this great night! Partners and friends are welcome. Drinks at bar prices and finger food including hot fresh pizza will be available. 

Please note - if you are from the class of 1959 (65 years since graduating) & 1974 (50 years since graduating) - you will be receiving an invitation to attend your special 50th Anniversary Afternoon Tea, also to be held on Saturday, 26th October from 2-4 pm. 

Please make sure you have updated your current details. Scroll to the bottom of this page if you need to update your details.

We hope to see you there!
