Annual Reunions

It doesn't need to be a "milestone-year" for you to reunite! Take this wonderful occasion to please gather your friends and host your own peer group reunion on a table or two!

Formalities kept to a minimum

This luncheon is primarily focused on reuniting friends in a delightful venue, enjoying some delicious food, and to socialise and reconnect with each other.  We are dedicated to keeping formalities to a minimum, so you can enjoy ample time together. We also warmly encourage you to invite partners, companions or other family members to attend.

Entertainment

As a special surprise, Deborah Conway AM (OL 1976) and her husband Willy Zygier will be entertaining our guests at the commencement of the lunch.

Bookings

During the booking process, please advise us of any dietary or accessibility restrictions, and you will also be able to nominate several friends you may wish to sit with. Whilst we will seat you at peer-group tables, we will do our best to seat you with the friends you request.

Tickets continue to be generously subsidised by the OLA and remain at $89 per person.  This includes a delicious and sumptuous 2-course lunch, beverage service, with coffee/tea and dessert. We encourage you to book early so we can seat you at your peer group table(s).

Parking at Quat Quatta

Please be aware that parking at Quat Quatta is very limited, so we do encourage you to be dropped off at Quat Quatta, if you choose not to take up our offer of bus transportation.  There is a circular driveway, so you can be dropped at the door.
