London Drinks Reception

Strathallians of all ages turned out in force for the London Drinks Reception.  Spanning the generations, leavers from every decade starting from the 1940's, got together in the Mercer Restaurant in the City and enjoyed drinks, canapes and a lot of chat! 

A great evening for catching up with old friends and making new acquaintances.

The next drinks reception is in the Borders on the 9th May, come along if you are in the area.

Simpson House Reunion

Simpson House held its reunion in early March 2011.  The last in the series of House reunions saw Strathallians representing a wide range of years (1946 - 2000) .  Memories were exchanged and Thomas Baxter delighted all by wearing his 1st XV cap from 1946.  Head of House, James McAllister and Captain of School Ben Melville then took the group on a tour of the School - stopping off at Glenbrae for an unscheduled visit to admire the view fro the top floor other new girls' Boarding House.

Strathallian London Dinner 2011

The flags were flying in London on the night of the Strathallian London Dinner - sadly not for us, but for the Royal Wedding the next day!

The Caledonian Club was the traditional setting for a wonderful evening, where meeting up with old friends was the order of the day.  Welcome drinks in the library were followed by a delicious meal where the Headmaster welcomed everyone and gave a flavour of the breadth of success the School is achieving.

The chance to get together with friends not seen for some time made it an evening to be enjoyed and remembered.
