Dave, I went to Bonbeach High in the 1980s; not far from Aspendale Tech. It was a sad day when Assy Tech closed, but those were the early days of the shift away from that type of education, more's the pity. Bonny High closed around the same time, a victim of falling enrollments and school mergers.
There was an us versus them thing with the Assy Tech kids, but we knew that the school produced well-educated and capable adults.
