Recent Win Coll Soc Events We will be holding the150 Anniversary Dinner for Kenny’s on Tuesday 6 th February 2018. This will take place in the Great Hall of the Merchant Taylors’ Company in London. Invitations have now been dispatched and we are looking for a record turnout! Parents’ Summer Party: on Friday 16 th June, 350 current parents gathered in the grand surroundings of the Great Hall of Winchester Castle for a sell-out drinks party. Entertainment was provided by singing don David Hurley and Vox Soc. The Headmaster and Alex Roe spoke: the party would not have happened without the unbounded enthusiasm, efficiency and generosity of Aisling Sykes, the Chair of the Parents’ Events Committee, her deputies Sarah Le May and Sophie Meek, and all her Committee and house reps. These parents’ parties have come a long way since they started six years ago and in particular since Aisling took over as Chair in 2014. th The Freddie’s Anniversary Dinner will take place on Tuesday 2 nd October 2018. Visiting Win Coll - security arrangements OWs and Don Soc members are most welcome, but we ha ve been asked by the Security Committee to remind those who wish to visit the school (other than for an event, when the instructions issued may be different, or when visiting as a spectator at matches) that they must contact the Porters’ Lodge to check whether the school is open for visitors. This should be done at least 24 hours in advance of the planned visit, or by Friday midday for weekends: 01962 621227 or [email protected]. They should arrive at the Porters’ Lodge and not enter by any other gate and will be asked to produce identification and sign the OW or Don Soc Visitors books; they will be issued with a visitor’s badge and lanyard, to be worn conspicuously during their visit, please, and returned as they leave through the same gate. They will also be given a map showing the areas of the school that may be visited. Safeguarding and Child Protection regulations become ever tighter and OWs and ex-staff are no longer allowed to come and go at will. Next year’s Parents’ Summer Ball takes place in London at Drapers’ Hall on Thursday 28 th June 2018. New Parents’ Events Committee Outgoing Chair Aisling Sykes 33
