A 12th member, who lives in France, sent a bouquet of 40 roses, one for each year since they had all left the school.
Sister Elise Saudan, who was headmistress of the school in 1968, was also there, along with Sister Ann McNally – previously known as Sister Scholastica – who was teaching at Sion in 1968.
Jackie Flowers-Leek – Jackie Tenant-Flowers while she was at school – organised the reunion with Diana Thorne.
Jackie said: "It was an absolutely brilliant afternoon, and the turnout was fantastic.
"It was great that everyone came, and we really enjoyed singing the school song."
