Cheltenham Girls High School Reunion 31.10.09 Sydney

'Forty Years On'
A Saturday night get-together of ex-students who attended Cheltenham at some time from 1964 & perhaps including HSC in 1969.
The words of the School Song were sung to the tune of the slow movement of Haydn's Emperor Quartet No 42 in C which became the German National Anthem 'Deutschland über alles...'

Let us sing to this our high school
Where with minds and bodies free
We may grow in grace and beauty
Straight and true as our tall trees

Chorus:
Truth, because we dare to speak it
Unity, to make us strong
Concord, nearer to each other
Brings us nearer so to God

Cheltenham our alma mater
Happy hours of work and play
Knowledge slowly turns to wisdom
Lighting up our high school way

When shall come the time to leave her
Face the world with courage high
We shall bear our motto forward
Turn to life, and proudly cry
