Jonathan Rodriguez who attended St Edward's Roman Catholic School in Poole is trying to trace former pupils of class 1981 for a 'young 50's' reunion on June 18.

It was after a recent social drink with his friends Mark Hammond and Martin Hunt that his quest began to gather as many former classmates together as possible. As their year group has never had a reunion before many of them will not have seen each other for over 30 years.

Already around 40 people have been in contact from that year group but there is another 60 yet to be traced. The ones they have been able to find have mixed backgrounds and have moved into many different areas of life with some owning their own business. Some have travelled around the world and live in such places as the United States, Australia, Canada and Europe. Other former pupils have remained in the Bournemouth and Poole area.

Those yet to trace are Norman Dillon, John Morris, Melanie Koster, Tracey Burns, Chantell, Sally Crabtree, Gerald Flanagan, Sean Lynski, Andrew White, Sean Fry, Alex Catano, Julie Garland, Simon Borcize, Shaun Sutton, Julie Jennings, Georgina McCann, Suzanne Maggie, Caroline Mole, Jane Camble, Julie Martin, Gary Brown, Julie Hinds, Paul Locker, Markus Burk, Nick Toroks, Marc Haddock, Jane Haywood, Laura Albanoxo, Alison Sherwood, Jenny Perry, Elizabeth Hopper, Anne Marie Almond, Peter Costello, Richard Frost, Paul Williams, Vanessa Weeks, Nicola Tagwell, Paul Musselwhite, Tessa Green, Julia Bostock, Gerald Whitworth, Alex Cattano, Martin Hartnell, Eunice Hughes, Jane Cambell and Andrew Perry.
