OTU SCHEYVILLE CLASS 1/65 60th ANNIVERSARY REUNION
Reunions
A 60th anniversary reunion will be held by the very first class of OTU Scheyville, Class 1/65, from 14 to18 July 2025 in Maroochydore on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.
The focus will be the anniversary of our arrival at OTU Scheyville in 1965 on Wednesday 16 July 2025. This day will include a commemorative service, graduate lunch and a gala dinner. Other activities are planned during the week.
We welcome all graduates from Class 1/65 as well as wives/partners of those no longer with us. We also want to hear from any Directive Staff who were mentors and instructors of that Class in the second half of 1965.
