From The Committee Chair

Greetings Class of '85 and Friends.

It is  with great excitement and pride that I write to you on behalf of the  organizing committee for the 40th anniversary reunion of Jamaica  College's graduating Class of 1985. This milestone event is an  opportunity to celebrate the remarkable journey we’ve all shared since  our days walking the hallowed halls of this great institution at "189".  It is hard to believe that four decades have passed since we last  gathered collectively as students, yet the memories, enduring  friendships, lessons learned and the indelible mark from our time at  Jamaica College remain with us to this day.

Since  the 40 years, we have ventured into the world, contributing to society,  building families, and forging careers, all while carrying the spirit  of Jamaica College with us. So this year, we celebrate not just the  passing of time, but the strong bond we continue to share as alumni of  one of Jamaica’s finest institutions.

As we  commemorate this significant occasion, we invite you to join us in  reconnecting with old friends, reflecting on our experiences, and  looking forward to the future. 

Our reunion  promises to be a memorable event filled with laughter, excitement,  nostalgia, reflection, fun and honoring the traditions that make Jamaica  College such a special place. We are working hard to ensure that this  celebration will be a fitting tribute to the legacy we all share. In the  coming weeks, we will be sharing more details. But in the meantime, we  encourage you to mark your calendars (October 24-27, 2025), as we hope  to see as many of you as possible.

If you have  any questions or would like to get involved with the planning, please do  not hesitate to reach out to members of the planning committee. Let’s  make this 40th reunion an event to remember, showcasing the enduring  pride we have in our alma mater.

Looking  forward to the gathering as a community of Old Boys, to strengthen our  ties, and to honor the institution that has played such a vital role in  shaping our lives.

Collegium floreat, fervet opus in campis (May the College flourish, work is burning in the fields).
