Old Pupils Association

The SHS Old Pupils Association held a reunion at Easter 2010 which was a great success despite the small number of ex pupils and families coming to see the school in its glory. A social evening on the Friday night was well attended with photos and more chatting occasions on the Saturday followed by a fabulous dinner held in the school stadium. Sunday saw the reunion close with a church service taken by three ex-pupils, including Mr Doug Robinson. Photos are available to view on the web by going to www.trodge.smugmug.com and viewing the photos. Orders can be done via email.

The Old Pupils Association is planning another reunion for all for ex-pupils of the school. More information about the reunion is available from the following addresses:

Postal Address: C/- 15 Oberon Street, Stratford - E-mail: info@shsopa.org
