Speech by Sharon Newton, class of September 1961, at the VGHSON Alumnae Association lunch – May 1, 2011
Ladies and Gentlemen, Fellow Nurses, Honoured Guests and the Classes of 1961
It’s our 50th reunion and how the years have flown by. We are now in our seventies – still young at heart – slightly older in other parts. We all have memories of our training days at VGH – for most of us the days of frustration, despair, hard work, tears, exam anxiety, and loneliness have been forgotten for the most part. Laughter, good times, supportive colleagues, and good friends are the most frequent memories we talk about today.
