Short film about life at our boarding school

The Gatton Association
incorporating
The Maitland Association, founded in 1856
and
The Royal Albert Old Boys’ Association, founded in 1869.


To celebrate the 250th anniversary of the founding of the Orphan Working School there will be a major Reunion on 22nd-24th August 2008.

Places will have to be limited and are being allocated on a first come first served basis.

Please contact Suecoombes@gatton-park.org.uk for booking or johnhounsom@yahoo.co.uk for further details.

Over one hundred Old Scholars have already expressed an interest, so we hope this will be a really big Reunion.
