There was joy in the room as those present started to recognise each other and their teachers. Ben Ponniah rallied the troops to get everyone together after 20 years away from the school (plus 2 due to Covid!). Many teachers joined us including Mr Gregory, Mrs Masser, Mr Godfrey, Mr Clare, Mr Calver, Mr Clayton and Mr Welbourne. Former Headmaster, Mr Galbraith also made it to the event to see former pupils. 

After drinks, lunch and speeches the group headed off on a tour of the school headed up by Mr Clayton and Mr Welbourne. They took in the old haunts including classrooms, Great School and School field, but also took in the New Music School which was built in 2015 to take music at Ipswich School to new heights. 

We do so enjoy welcoming OIs back to the school. If you are coming up to a reunion year, please do get in touch. We offer them at 10, 20, 30 & 40 years out. After that you will be invited to attend the Summer Lunch every June which is for 50 years and more since leaving school.
