@ Lionel - thanx, we're getting there!  I remember you well. Keep looking!

dr venter was principal of parklands college till recently. how old is this guy ,80,90,100,odd???????

I can't believe he is still around!!

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

Are you sure it is the same Doc Venter? As he was principal of O.P.S when I was in Sub A in 1962. So lets say he was 30 then that makes him about 76 now . Thats if he was 30 then.

[Cheryl Quantrill (van Greunen)]

Hey, if he was 30 in 1962 then he was pretty grey already.  He seemed pretty old to me at the time. I can't believe it was the same guy!!

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

I'm guessing 30 certainly not younger than that more than likely older

[Cherry (Alcock)]

Is my memory correct Diana- I could have sworn that Doc Venter actually retired from Oranjemund so he must be very old to have been principal somewhere else?

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

I'm sure Chris has got the wrong Venter

[Barbara Eia (Brownless)]

Dr Venter retired to somerset west I seen him and his wife while shopping in the late eighties and he was not working them. He told me he was enjoying his retirement

[Michael Alexander]

His son is a member of this fourm, seek closure with him......  :emot26:
