Ms Lennox spoke to the ladies and expressed her thanks for all the work they have done over the years. Some of these volunteers come in weekly to assist the students and others work from home, knitting and sewing our blankets together.

Without the work of these wonderful ladies, the Knitting Group would not achieve what it has over the last 16 years. Several of our volunteers are ex-staff, such as Maureen McCann, Maureen O'Brien, Shirley Mills, Lorraine St John (and daughter Alanna) and Janine McLeod. Others have had grandchildren at the College and continue to knit for us, such as Jan Vacchini and Pam Poole. We also have a troupe of ladies who are friends of the College and knit for us including Cathy Johnson, Sue Ollis, Del Costa, Marian Martin, Carol Best and Evelyn Loh.

The ladies were treated to a slideshow of photos spanning the last 16 years.
