11/18/2016 0 Comments Keeping In TouchWe always appreciate messages and notes from our Old Boys, especially the ones that don't just tag someone in a Facebook post. The following was received recently from Leighton Hart and we hope he doesn't mind us sharing it with you. A reminder that we would appreciate you registering your intention to attend our farewell to Peter Costello, Graham Blanks and Leigh Hucker, which can be done at this link - The Three Legends. Hello. I recently read about the retirement of Graham Blanks and Peter Costello. They both have had fantastic careers, which have help shaped the lives of many. Mr Blanks as I knew him for so long was my teacher on my first day at FDMC in 1988, this was also his first year at the College. When I look back on my time at FDMC I have many fond memories and these were created due to the hard work and dedication of the teachers. 11/17/2016 1 Comment A Bunch Of First Day StudentsPictured are a group of First Day Boarders taken at the 25th Jubilee in 1984.
