Strictly for the record – class handles
06 November 2007
The Brisbane reunion handbook ASOPA Years included some wonderful information and anecdotes from the very beginnings of the School. One of editor Henry Bodman’s clever ideas was to work with contributors to create a catchphrase to characterise each of the fifteen Classes from 1957-58 to 1971-72 whose stories are told in the publication.
For the record, here they are:
1957-58 The original ASOPA chalkies
1958-69 The golden years
1959-60 Chalkies here to stay
1960-61 Last on-campus residents
1961-62 The ASOPA classics
1962-63 The reunion junkies
1963-64 The natives are restless
1964-65 The last of the primaries
1965-66 The first of the secondaries
1966-67 Quality with quantity
1967-68 The Moresby mafia at work
1968-69 Last of the 69ers
1969-70 To be reckoned with
1970-71 The penultimates
1971-72 The times they were a changin’
