Our events allow the opportunity to connect, reconnect, reminisce and share life journeys. We love the energy created by them and feel privileged to be present to be able to share in these special moments.
Once a Haileyburian, always a Haileyburian.
OHA Chapter Dinners
The OHA roadshow rolled through Sydney, Gold Coast, Brisbane, Perth and Singapore late last year. Feedback provided included, “The networking opportunity was exceptional. It was a great chance to connect with fellow Haileyburians, exchange ideas, and learn from each other’s experiences,” and, “I enjoyed the insightful and encouraging update on the School’s progress.” We absolutely love hosting our Chapter events and staying connected with our interstate and overseas alumni!
Class of 1984 – 40 Year Reunion
OHA Events commenced 2024 with a massive turnout from the Class of 1984 for their 40-year reunion at The Deck in Brighton. Laughter, delicious food, and nostalgia filled the room as classmates reminisced about the good old days. A massive shout-out to everyone involved for making it an unforgettable evening.
Former Cricketers Event
The sun shone brightly on our former cricket players as they immersed themselves in an afternoon of cricket watching. They thoroughly enjoyed inspecting the pitch and reliving memorable moments from the balcony of the new Langford Pavilion. Thanks to the current First XI players for making these former players welcome.
Class of 1979 – 45 Year Reunion
The Class of 1979 celebrated their 45-year reunion in spectacular style at The Prince in St Kilda. It was a joyous evening for all.
Ken Phillips Day
The annual Ken Phillips Day was the perfect opportunity to showcase the growth and strength of the First XVIII and the Old Haileybury Football Club. In a keenly contested game, The First XVIII clinched the Cup and the win over the Under 19’s team. With this win, they now lead the games with 14 wins to 13.
OHA Berwick and Keysborough Generations Breakfasts
The popular OHA Generations Breakfasts have been held at the Keysborough and Berwick campuses. It was heart-warming to witness grandparents, parents, students and staff come together and celebrate their history at Haileybury. Families were treated to a delicious breakfast and family portrait while listening to talented Haileybury String Quartets. The entertaining and competitive family Kahoot has been the highlight for many.
A special thank you to John Twist, Haileybury’s first Head of Campus at Berwick, for attending with his stepson, an Old Haileyburian, and grandson who is a current student.
We are looking forward to hosting our OHA Generational families at City and Brighton campuses in the second half of the year.
Sincock Cup
Congratulations to the Old Haileybury Cricket Club on winning the annual Sincock Cup trophy against a gallant Haileybury XI on the Rendall Oval. This is a fitting tribute to the former School Captain, Russell Sincock (OH 1966) and his brother, the late Geoff Sincock (OH 1975), who valued sport, friendships and our wonderful network. Well done to both teams for a brilliant game.
Hearts on Fire
Our incredible Old Haileyburians shared their valuable tips and tricks for thriving in Year 12, offering guidance and support to our Year 12 Haileybury Girls. Thank you to Mia Leys (OH 2023), Grace Green (OH 2023), Jorgia Mellon (OH 2023), Kaaviyaa Yathavan (OH 2023), Katherine Dekel (OH 2023) and current OHA Councillors, Melissa Allen (OH 2009) and Zara Scammel (OH 2022) for your generous contributions.
Former Footballers Event
It was delightful to witness the community support and comradery at the Former First XVIII Footballers event in April. Attendees were particularly impressed with the facilities of the new Langford Pavilion and loved reconnecting and watching from the balcony as the Bloods and Hearts football matches played throughout the day.
OHA, Haileybury Foundation and Archives event
More than 50 Old Haileyburians attended the inaugural OHA, Haileybury Foundation and Archives morning tea held in the Jim Brown Centre at Keysborough. It was a journey through time as we showcased Haileybury’s extensive archives collection, listened to captivating presentations, and enjoyed a guided School tour by Year 12 students. Many guests brought in photos and memorabilia which were greatly appreciated.
Please stay tuned for details regarding our second event in October. In the meantime, we are more than happy to have guests pop in to visit so please email stayconnected@haileybury.com.au if you are interested.
HRS Melbourne Dinner
The Haileybury Rendall School (HRS) Melbourne dinner held at the George on Collins restaurant in May was truly memorable. It was a fabulous occasion where HRS alumni living in Melbourne and former HRS staff, including Craig and Kerry Glass, came together for an evening of reconnection and reminiscing.
The message of the evening was clear, no matter which campus of Haileybury you attended or where in the world you live, the OHA is always here to care for and support you. Once a Haileyburian, always a Haileyburian.
Class of 2014 – 10 Year Reunion
It was a memorable occasion as the class of 2014 celebrated their 10-year reunion at the Valhalla Bar in Melbourne. It was wonderful to see them sharing stories and fond memories. Thanks to everyone involved for staying connected.
Boutique Industry Luncheon with Dean-Allen Craig
We were thrilled to have Dean Allen-Craig (OH 1979), a distinguished journalist and video expert, as our guest speaker at the OHA Boutique Industry Luncheon. Attendees were captivated by Dean’s insights into the industry and made the most of the networking opportunities.
