Reunions
Each year we are delighted to be able to welcome back Old Novos for reunions of their year group, to hear all your news and also raise a glass to those who are unable to attend. Our reunions are always wonderful occasions, with many fond stories being shared and relationships re-established.
For each formal reunion, we have started to create a Reunion Booklet containing photos from the events as well as some from our archive, and the biographies of those who were able to attend. The full reunion booklets (containing biographies) are available to the reunion year group - please contact us if you need access), reunion booklets without the biographies are available to review below.
These take significant work to produce so we are grateful to our year group ambassadors who help to track down people from their year group, and to everyone who submits a biography.
Below is a schedule of forthcoming reunions planned, alternatively please do sign up to come along to any of our events here. We hope we’ll see you back at RGS before too long!
Classes of 1993 & 2003 Reunions
In July 2023 we were delighted to be able to welcome back Old Novos from the Class of 1993 and Class of 2003 to our Annual Summer Garden Party, and raise a glass to those who were unable to attend. It was a wonderful occasion, with many fond stories being shared and relationships re-established. The dedicated reunion webpage is here (password required) and a summary brochure and photographs are available below.
Classes of 1963, 1973 & 1983 Reunions
We were thrilled to welcome back Old Novos for 40, 50 & 60 (yes 60!) year reunions in October 2023. How incredible to see so many familiar faces so long after leaving school together, though of course no one looked a day over 18! The dedicated reunion webpage is here (password required) and a summary brochure and photographs are available below. We hope you enjoy reminiscing about a glorious weekend.
Want to know when your reunion will take place? Save the date!
After leaving school, our more recent Old Novos will be invited back each year, to reunited and also chat with our Y12 students who will be making big decisions about courses, Universities and careers. The salient advice of our younger ONs is of immense value to the Y12s, who are of course the next generation of students.
Additionally, each year group will have a 5 and 10 year reunion, followed by a 10 year reunion each decade going forward. If you want to see when your reunion events will happen, take a look below. However we also encourage anyone and everyone to sign up for any of our events, you don't need to be celebrating an anniversary to come and see familiar faces and meet some new likeminded friends, connected to RGS!
