John Wolff age 96 swimming laps
John Wolff was an active member of the Swimming Club during the time I was involved in the 1960s.
He took part in a veterans 110 meters race at the age of 97 and was still doing his laps up until a few weeks before he passed away aged 103 and 11 months on Christmas day 2016.
Grade 2A
I coloured the school photo with my special paints which we had around that time used for colouring black and white photos. I was absent on the day the photo was taken which was remarkable as I think I only missed 2 days of school for the whole of the six years of Primary School - this day in 1958 and the day of the Grade 6 photo in 1962. We went to school no matter what!
Yallourn Power Station SECV
My father John Wolff came to Yallourn in 1932. These are some photos he took in the early days of the power station. I remember going with him to the 'boiler room' and the 'control room' where it was much quieter.
