Kenny’ s 150th Anniversary Dinner: on Tuesday 6 th February 2018, within the splendid surroundings of the Merchant Taylors’ Hall, Threadneedle Street, 210 Kennyites sat down to celebrate 150 years since the house had been established by Revd William Fearon. Included among the guests were 27 4 th and 5 th year boys; thus the age range was from 17 to 93 – Rob Tillard( D, 37- 42) turned up for drinks. Housemaster Matt Winter welcomed the guests and Brigadier Andrew Myrtle( D, 46-51) replied on their behalf. A splendid evening was had by all and there was a particularly healthy representation from younger Old Kennyites, which bodes well for the future.
Freddie’ s turn is on 2 nd October 2018.

50 Years-on Reunion Lunch: on Saturday 24 th February 2018, a bright but cold and frosty morning greeted 35 nearly-70 year olds when they arrived at School for a welcome cup of coffee. This was followed be a tour of Treasury,
Rachel Wragg conducting the guests skilfully around the exhibits. Drinks and lunch followed: Fellow Stephen Cobb( A, 75-80) spoke for the home team and Robert Jennings( C, 62-67) replied on behalf of the guests. By this time tribal noises could be heard outside and the company decamped into Meads, bathed in glorious sunshine, to watch a game of XVs which was a closer win by OTH than many had originally predicted.
