About us

Although the school no longer exists, and even the building has been demolished, there is still a wealth of cameraderie among the old boys, and the Annual Dinner held at Stationers' Hall attracts many members each year. Old Stationers are located around the world - I have heard from old boys in America, Australia, the Bahamas, Canada and Hong Kong. I was surprised to find an old boy working not far from my office, and another across the road from my home.

Why not post a message in the visitors' book, and let everyone know where you are?

Does anyone have any pictures of the school, pupils or masters they would like to see on the internet? Please email them to me, or, alternatively, post the original to me (address sent on request) - I will scan the photo and return the original to you.
Here are a couple that I have received - click on each to enlarge them:

Robert Hughes sent me this picture of the Upper Sixth in July 1968.
From Keith Fielder in Hong Kong - taken about 1957-58. Anyone wanting to contact Keith should reply to his message in the Vistors' Book
This school photo of the first form taken in June 1977, was sent in by Lawrie King - his email address is in the visitors' book
November 1965 - Steve Newman sent me this pic of the U14/15 team - the team members are listed under the enlarged picture. Far be it from me to be an umpire, but Alex Flemming has told me this is actually the U13s
An excellent picture of the lower sixth in 1954 - a picture taken by WAC Rees - courtesey of John Brignell
Another super picture from John Brignell - the lower sixth cricket team in 1954 - anyone know more about the occasion?
The first of three pictures from Graham Knight, posted by his son, Jim - also an Old Stationer. Mr Rost's class 1931/32
The second of Graham Knight's class pictures - Mr Ryan's class 1932/33
The third of Graham Knight's pictures, showing his progress through the school - Mr Oxtoby's class of 1935/36
Clive Giles sent me this picture which is marked 1970 - but he says its 1972/73. One thing is clear though. It is Mr Evans' class. Oh - and look for Mr Naylor watching through the window!
George Moss sent me this memory of the 1920s - and the picture below later in the decade with many of the same people.
This picture was later in the 1920s - and don't miss the 1928 school picture, selected from the button on the left!
