● The Students Representative Council felt it desirable to change its name to Student Union. Radical changes saw the executive replaced by a volunteer management committee.

● Amalgamation of Mother’s Club with the P.T.S.A.

● Students set up radio station 3MH.

● Good attendances at parent-teacher-student interviews, where a spirit of co-operation was evident.
