Forthcoming Events Our team in the Development Office have been working hard to research and plan a brandnew host of exciting events for throughout 2020. These events will fall under the banner of the Former Pupils’ Association (FPA) and will offer our guests the chance to join us for a selection of fun and relaxed ‘friendraising’ get-togethers across the country. Not only will you be able to reunite with former classmates, but you’ll also be able to engage and network with Former Pupils from a variety of other Class Years as well. Places for our events will be limited and offered on a first come first served basis, so please do contact the team if there is an event of interest to you: Telephone: + 44 (0) 1382 202921 E-mail: alumni@highschoolofdundee.org.uk
