17th June 19
On Friday 14 June we were delighted to welcome back last year’s Year 6 (our youngest MOGs) for a get-together netball match. After the initial excitement of seeing old friends, the girls were split up into three teams for the tournament to commence. Many parents stayed to watch and it was lovely to see such familiar faces back on school grounds.
The next day, on Saturday 15 June, we welcomed back over 35 MOGs for a summer reunion. It was great to see people of all ages back at school for a trip down memory lane, including some ladies who hadn’t been back for over 30 years. For some, Maltman’s had been their home away from home as it was a boarding school until 1994.
The event started with drinks and canapes, with the chance to mingle and chat. Mrs Pardon then gave her welcome before waving her guests off on their tours. They were shown some of the School’s newer developments but what they were most interested in was finding their old dormrooms and classrooms, and sharing memories from their time together. They also enjoyed looking through our extensive archives – finding photos, programmes, newspaper clippings and more.
It was clear they really appreciated being able to come back and visit such a special place from their past.
