Colin Mathers 
Are you Colin Mathers who grew up in Casino? If so, I did sometimes wonder what happened to you as you were the only student that earned better results than me.
If so, Colin, you would remember me as Christine Chalmers. I have a painting about endemic homelessness in the UNHCR headquarters in Harare, Zimbabwe.
Christine, I am indeed the Colin Mathers who grew up in Casino. And I remember you also. I think the only people I have kept some contact with from Casino are Chris Gorton and Neil and Ann Robertson. I’ve been working for WHO in Geneva since year 2000 and went to Harare once back in 2000 when the WHO African Regional Office was there. Are you an artist? I went to Sydney University and did a Ph.D. in physics but then switched to population health statistics and epidemiology and have been working in the public health field since. Regards, Colin
Goodness, it is really you, Colin! Bravo on your PhD and WHO work. At least one from our class is working for the betterment of others.
I do recall both Neil Robertson and Chris Gorton.
I was commissioned some years ago to make a painting about homelessness and lack of access to clean water and a home in African countries – and India – for the UNHCR Zimbabwe where this painting now resides. The painting is called Tourist Map of India. It’s title is ironic. It was given to the UNHCR by the International Federation of Surveyors (sorry I forget this organisation’s French name).
Yes, I am an artist though have not exhibited for the past two years. As we now live in the Northern rivers I am making new work this year about Bundjalung National Park, which was our childhood playground (south of Evans Head). My work is predominantly about post colonial issues, place, identity, and more recently Climate Change. Really I remain deeply interested in biogeographical and anthropological readings of place. We lived in Canberra for 25 years and I was privileged to have contact with some eminent earth scientists through my research and work on the cultural and environmental histories of Weereewa/Lake George (a climatically sensitive lake near Canberra). Australia is such a compelling continent, and one which our society is still coming to terms with.
Gooday Colin, I remember you from Homebush Boys High days. I graduated in Dentistry from Sydney in 1975, spent several years in the RAAF pursuing my aviation interests . Then became an Orthodontist and practiced in Canberra and Batemans Bay for 30 odd years. Recently retired in Batemans Bay and still flying aeroplanes. Mark McLachlan
Mark, of course I remember you, we were good friends in high school. I knew you had done dentristry at Sydney University but lost track of you after that. I don’t get down to Canberra or the south coast much these days, but will do so sometime, maybe we can catch up. Regards, Colin
