In recent years Blackfriars has expanded its Old Scholars reunion program to include six peer group reunions per year - 1, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 year – plus a Christmas reunion for Old Scholars of any era.

With over 100 Old Scholars on our database showing as living in Victoria, Melbourne seemed the logical place to host our inaugural interstate reunion.
