The Annual Honorary Common Room Staff Luncheon was held on Friday, 28 October. This year over 26 past staff and long serving current staff were in attendance. It was great to hear the familiar voices back in the Common Room during morning break, talking with current staff and no doubt re-telling stories and reacquainting with old friends.

After morning break, the guests were taken on tour through the College to the new Tupou College Centre and Drama Centre. During the tour they were able to see the Year 7 Centre in full swing and marvel at the new state-of-the-art facilities for Drama.

After the tour, the Honorary Members were treated to a fine lunch served in the Council Board Room. This lunch was hosted by the current Chairman of the Common Room, Mr Rodney Wood. “It was such a great opportunity to thank these fine educators. Men and women who have served the College so well, laying the platform for where we are today.” said Mr Wood.

The next Annual Common Room Lunch for past staff will be held on Friday, 27 October 2017.
