Collingwood Capers
To raise funds for the visit to Wellington later this year of High School pupils, a gala was held in the grounds of the Collingwood District High School. Highlight of the day was the underwater display by Messrs Helem and Garland (left) while pillow-fighting was another competition into which the boys entered with enthusiasm. An innovation was a knitting contest (bottom left) competing in which are Mesdames R. Taylor, A. Page, N. Strange, W. J. Solly and R. P. Riley. (Pix supplied by Jack Solly).
Assisted by her youngest son, Mr W. J. Solly, and a grand-daughter, Mrs C. McLellan, Mrs W. Solly snr. cuts her 80th birthday cake.
