7/28/2020 0 Comments A New AdditionIt was once the College Chapel, then in the early 1980's it became our art room, and as of this week, we now know the space as the De La Salle Careers Centre. I am sure all old boys will agree it is quite the transformation and one that will get a lot of use into the future.
3/12/2020 0 Comments How Things ChangeIt is interesting how people's realities and expectations change over time. This junior dorm in the 1980s would have seemed like a luxury to those guys who boarded in the 1960s, while to today's boarders they would be extremely basic.
3/5/2020 2 Comments Cricket Stars in the MakingWith the second half of the cricket season in full swing at the College, we thought this pic from the 1960s was quite topical. A very bright-eyed and keen group of young cricketers but we don't know their names. Leave a comment if you recognise Dad, Grand Dad or an old mate.

9/20/2019 0 Comments Old Boys Are EverywhereYou just never know when and where you might run into an FDMC Old Boy! Our old fella at large Peter Costello was holidaying on Niue recently when he got talking with a fellow tourist in Chris Scullin. Turns out Chris was an old boy from the early 1970's. Even when you are getting away from it all there is usually a college connection.
