OUR 100th BIRTHDAY! Hundreds of Port Lincoln High School students (in Years 7, 11 and 12 at least) commenced their 2023 school year on January the 30th. As shown in the above image of the School Journal (a handwritten historical record of key events), PLHS opened its doors (to 51 students) for the very first time on this day in 1923, exactly one hundred years ago. * We again thank and acknowledge the Port Lincoln History Group for working on the enormous task of digitising our school archives – all 100 years of them.
PLANS FOR CENTENARY CELEBRATION WEEKEND Friday Night – Arts Extravaganza at Nautilus Theatre (featuring PLHS Dance/Drama/Music concert & PLHS Art/Design/Photography exhibition) // Saturday & Sunday – Guided School Tours of PLHS campus (including access to PLHS archives (kindly digitised by Port Lincoln History Group) // Sunday Night – Centenary Celebration at Port Lincoln Hotel (cocktail-style function, guest speakers, historical displays)
