Founder’s Day and Cheese and Ale Ceremony 17th June 2023

“It was so nice to attend a Founder’s Day service after all this time. It brought back many memories.”

Robert Hurt (ON 1970-1980)

Founder’s Day took place at St Mary’s Church in Nottingham on Saturday 17th June.

The event was attended by Old Nottinghamians, Governors, staff, parents and all students. We were pleased to welcome the presence of the Deputy Lieutenant of Nottinghamshire, Edward Attenborough and the Lord Mayor of Nottingham, Councillor Carole McCulloch.

After the service, many joined us for the Cheese and Ale Ceremony , where the chosen Representative Scholars, Ebu and Hattie, were awarded a Foundation Tie and a framed certificate with a traditional groat coin.
