On the 7 February 1978, 45 Primary School children walked through the gates at 117 Kooyong Road, Armadale in Victoria, Australia. They were joined by 50 Kindergarten kids ready to start a new adventure. It was raining. But the weather did nothing to dampen the anticipation felt by all students, parents, teachers and staff. It was the beginning of a new era and the culmination of years of tireless work: the day that The King David School first opened its doors.

Nearly 40 years have passed since that first rainy day of school and at the end of this year we bid farewell to the Southwick Campus. The Campus has seen so much and been so much to all of us. There are countless memories, first days of school, last days of school, playground antics, inspirational teachers and lifelong friends. We invite you to share your memories of the Southwick Campus, Kooyong Road, with us right here, right now. All you need to do is fill in this simple form.

With your permission, these memories and recollections will become part of The King David School Archives and may form part of our formal farewell to the Campus at the King's Carnival in November of this year.
