Our association is made up of Old Boys of all eras, who enjoy making new friends, meeting old ones and simply enjoy spending time together our annual reunion.

He was elected in 2009 as a measure of the Association’s appreciation for his work as Hon. Sec from 2000 – 2009.

His term of office culminated in a most successful centenary celebration which included the production of “We were there” - in conjunction with Stuart Halsey – memories of the School by Old Boys representing most of the decades in the 20^th Century, The book was published to coincide with the centenary and is now a collector’s item.

David also organized a most enjoyable centenary concert performed by past and present members of the School.

And finally he oversaw the organization of the Centenary Dinner which was attended by over 350 Old Boys from all over the country and overseas.

David taught at the School for 30 year before retiring in 1995. He is married to Sheila, an old girl of HGGS, and their four sons were also pupils at the School. They now live in Norfolk and welcome visitors. (But contact: 01366 328 153 or email: davidstancombe@tiscali.co.uk) to make sure they will be there.

We now meet once a year for our reunion, usually in April. Next year it will be Saturday 21st April 2012. Details will be in the February Newsletter and on the web site in the events section.
