PARADE COLLEGE

The Old Paradians’ Association is to honour two of the College’s former teachers Barbara Bibby and Patricia (Rooney) Joss - pictured here overseeing a students basketball match in 1973 - at next Wednesday’s monthly Luncheon at the RACV City Club.

The Association has seen fit to declare Barbara and Patricia this year’s recipients of its Woman of Distinction Award (established 2014) and will make presentations to both women. Barbara and Patricia now join the late Gizella Vermont (2014), Shirley O’Rourke (2015) and Elizabeth Stella last year, as recipients of the Old Paradians’ Association’s Woman of Distinction Award.

All Old Paradians, particularly those taught by either Barbara or Patricia, are welcome to attend the Luncheon, but need to urgently confirm by contacting Keith Sharkie on 0416 144391 or email keithsharkie@tpg.com.au by no later than Monday, May 8.
