I am Philip Gaspert, a graduate of Class 157, registered number 17804. I am listed as ‘Peter’ Gaspert, which is obviously wrong. Is there any chance this error can be corrected?
Hi Phil,
Done mate.

Great to see the old photo, but at the same time sad to see some members of the class 157 have passed on. I resigned in 1980 reluctantly but due to personal reasons. Regards to all from class 157.
