SAORA Cape Town Cocktail party 2017

by

The annual Cape Town get-together this year was held at the elegant Andros Hotel in Claremont. Old Girls both young and old, mingled and chatted as they caught up on news of ‘old’ school friends. Lindsay Lawrence, the President of SAORA, gave a short review on the activities of SAORA, and then introduced Murray Thomas, the Executive Head of Roedean, who had flown down from Johannesburg to meet the Capetonians. He gave the Old Girls an update on the current happenings at the school and the achievements of the pupils. The evening was thoroughly enjoyed by all, and we are already planning next year’s event!
