We are very sorry to notify you of the passing of John who was at the School from 1947 until 1954.
John sadly passed away in December 2024.
We are conscious that some people who knew John during his time at the School may not be in contact with us and we would be very grateful if you could pass on this information to those that you know.
As is usual practice, we would like to place an obituary for John in the 2024-25 OI Journal. If you know of any stories or memories which you can pass on to us so we can put them together for the publication we would be most grateful. Please address any contributions to me through oldipswichians@ipswich.school
John's funeral will be held on Thursday 16 January at 1.00pm. Venue: Horham Baptist Church, Eye IP21 5ER

I remember when we had been swimming in the School back in the day and we all had straw boater hats as part of our uniform. We had all placed them on the bench whilst swimming, including Malcolm Cockrill (OI 1944-55) had John sat on Malcom's boater and it disintegrated much to everyone's amusement!
Roger Jarrold (OI 1944-55)
