Our Story
True as steel, in our zeal, for the honour of our school.
We are Lions of Rabalac. Between 1978 and 1983 (and 1983 - 85), 61 Red Hills Road was our home away from home. The cradle of our adolescence. The Green and Black nurtured, molded and prepared us for the world.
40 years later, we reconnect, reminisce and re-ignite for a brighter future for our classmates, the current Lions and our school.
We begin with a Reunion Week that is the starting leg of a relay that will prove that we are 'true as steel, in our zeal, for the honour of our school'.
We, the COBA Class of '83, say 'Here Sir!'
