Five Year Reunion for the Year of 2018
A wonderfully balmy October evening welcomed the Year of 2018 back to King’s for their Five Year Reunion.
The doors to the Mulberry Marquee were thrown open to make the most of the fine weather, as the Year of 2018 cohort retraced their steps back to School, with a mixture of anticipation, excitement and some apprehension – one OV explaining that it felt like they were 14 years old again!
The OVs were joined for drinks and canapés by some of their former teachers, including Hon OVs Katie Beever, Robin Booth, Jim Chalmers, Gilly, Jonny Mason, Ronan McLaverty-Head, Donna Salkeld and Chris Wilson, all happily reminiscing about their schooldays and what they have achieved in the five years since leaving.
OV and former Head of School, Alice Evans (S 11-18 and Old St Alban’s) officially welcomed everyone back, saying a few words to her fellow OVs reflecting on the longevity of their friendships and how they have continued to stay in touch. Headmaster, Gareth Doodes, seconded Alice’s welcome to the Year of 2018!
As ever, the OVs carried the reuniting on into Worcester, but not until a vote had been had for which establishment would be the first stop on the Nine Dots tour; the King’s Head won!
