Ten Years on Reunions
Queen’s Birthday Weekend 2018
1968, 1978, 1988, 1998 & 2008 Leavers
Welcome
The Executive of the Old Boys’ Association is very pleased to publicise next year’s Ten Years On Reunions for all those year groups who departed the College on an “8” year!
This year’s inaugural Reunions left us with no doubt that such reunions are an important addition to the Association’s activities.
Year Group Facilitators for 2018 are being finalised and we now very much hope that you and your contemporaries do all you can to ensure that your reunion is a wonderful one.
Individual year groups may choose their own activities and work in with Old Girls from St Matthew’s or follow the proposed programme.
Please mark it in your diaries (Friday 1 June – Sunday 3 June 2018 ) and resolve to come along.
