ELSTREE ALUMNI

2022 Leavers

In April, our 2022 Leavers came back to Elstree to celebrate the opening of their very generous gift, The Friendship Bench, which now sits on the front lawn at Elstree.

It was a wonderful opportunity to hear how our most recent Leavers are getting on at Senior School and even better to see them relive their time at Elstree with a quick game of Bat Room Cricket!

Huge thanks to them all for coming back to see us, and their wonderful Leavers Gift – a new treasure at Elstree that is already being put to great use !

British Olympiad

Elstree Old Boy Rain is currently an academic and music scholar at Wellington College. Fascinated with science since his Elstree days, his interest still thrives today.

He has received two Gold awards in successive years from the British Physics Olympiad, and this year, another Gold in the British Chemistry Olympiad. These competitions recognise excellence in young scientists and Rain outstandingly completed each challenge up to two years ahead of the year group they are designed to test.

Rain’s passion for science has led him to speak publicly about Quantum Physics, where he was awarded the Peter Frankopan Prize at the Fifth Form Scholars’ Presentation Evening. He also continues to play the clarinet in the symphony orchestra and concert band at Wellington.

Rain is currently preparing for his GCSEs - wishing you every success in your exams and we look forward to hearing where those Olympiad awards take you in the future!

Upon leaving Elstree, Archie went to Radley College where he is now in his final year. We are delighted to hear that he has been appointed Head of House and awarded an Army Officer’s Scholarship to Sandhurst. Following a gap year, he will study mathematics and finance at Exeter University and then go on to attend Sandhurst. Congratulations to Archie and good luck in your A-Levels!

Performing Arts

Tristan is now at Eton preparing for his A-levels. As an Old Boy who loved his drama, famed for his gripping performances – we were thrilled when Tristan was accepted last year at the National Youth Theatre.
