The Annual Reunion
Each year there is an Annual Reunion for all Westwoodians and their families and friends. The Reunion currently takes the form of a Chapel Service, followed by a buffet lunch. In May 2009, we followed this with lawn games which proved very popular and gave everyone a chance to participate. Tours of the School were also available after lunch and for those who have not visited for some time this offers the chance to see the many and varied changes that have taken place over the year. This format has proved very popular, with attendance increasing year on year. Each year our honorary guests are those who left the School five years previously, so in 2010 we look forward to welcoming the 'Class of 2005' as our honorary guests.
In 2003, the School hosted a reunion specifically for the Class of 1960 and celebrated the birthdays of Mrs. Jane Bowgen and her friends. This group has been meeting every ten years at School but decided to return in 2008 after just five years and we were delighted to welcome a group to the 2008 Reunion of that year.
The date for the next Reunion is Sunday, 13th June, 2010. Further details and a registration form will be available nearer the time.
The Westwoodians' Newsletter
There is an Annual Summer Newsletter which is mailed free of charge to all registered Westwoodians. The Newsletter will update you with news of fellow Westwodians and also carries current news of the Association and of life at Peterborough High School. If you have not been in contact with the School for some time, the Newsletter is an ideal starting point.
If you have any items which you would like considered for publication in the next Newsletter, please contact the Secretary.
Advertising in the Newsletter
For the first time in 2008, we were able to offer advertising space in the Newsletter and the revenue from this has helped support the production costs. If you have a product or service you would like to advertise, or know of someone who might be interested, please contact the Secretary.
Interested?
If you are interested in joining the Association or would like any more information about any aspect, the next step is to contact the Secretary, Mrs. Julia Hart. Julia works part-time from an office in School and is always pleased to hear from current or potential members.
