"HSC Class of 1977 and SC Class of 1975" NEWSLETTER:
We are now doing regular newsletters, that are emailed out to our ex-classmates
once or twice a year, if you are an ex-student (or teacher/staff) and wish to receive
these newsletters, then send your details via email,
(ie. Name & email address, add your maiden name if married,

This webpage will only have photos and information safe for a public domain site.
It won't have fullnames or details on these webpages to respect people's privacy,
as these webpages are in the public domain.
DISCLAIMER:
Sorry I had to keep it restricted to those people in these particular years,
as there would have thousands who attended the school over the 38 years of
operation.
If you were not in these particular years at this school, then please consider
creating your own website, or portal, or email discussion group, or blog, etc.
NOTE: Yahoo is closing down the Geocities websites at the end of this year.
Bear in mind, when choosing a group name, that there are several Beacon Hill
High Schools worldwide. If you want to model your own webpage & discussion group
off this website, then you are welcome and encouraged to do so.
You can also subscribe to the BHHS_NSW_AU portal, which is open to any ex-Beacon
Hill High School (Sydney NSW) student or staff member.
Please check the main BHHS (BHHS_NSW_AU) website for links to other years.
