1541 Society Lunch 2024

On Friday 10 May 2024, we were delighted to welcome members of the 1541 Society to lunch in the Michael Baker Boathouse.

The 1541 Society encompasses all elements of the King’s Community, comprising OVs, Hon OVs, former and current parents. It recognises those individuals who have supported the King’s School Worcester Development Trust in a major way, whether through an extraordinary gift, legacy pledge, or by donating their time to forward the work of the Trust.

The Headmaster, Gareth Doodes, thanked the members for their loyal support of the School as well as the trustees and the Alumni Relations Team for their hard work throughout the year. He shared with the guests some highlights from the School, including our wonderful recognition as one of the Top 10 Independent Secondary Schools in the West Midlands, one of the top eight rowing schools in the UK, and in the top one per cent of sporting schools in the country, showing that King’s is in good shape and with a bright future.

The guests enjoyed an excellent three-course meal, prepared by the School’s caterers, Thomas Franks, and the opportunity to catch up with friends, old and new.

Our thanks, as ever, to all of those who support the King’s School Worcester Development Trust.
