SJF JUNIOR CLASS OF 1962

 

I was contacted by Dennis Schinkel on 20 November 2011. Dennis advised that he was in the first Junior Class at John Fisher’s.  He had recently spoken with Barry Bannister, another of the first class, and he suggested that they should try to organise a Class Re-union for the 196 Junior Class at SJF as it will be fifty years since they did Junior in 2012. 

Please contact Dennis Schinkel if you are interested in attending any future Class Reunions.
