HISTORY OF THE COLLEGE

The College occupied a range of buildings on the west side of Salisbury Cathedral Close beside the River Avon.  The College closed in 1978.

THE OLD STUDENTS' ASSOCIATION

The Association continued on closure of the College in 1978.   The Chairman and her Committee organise and arrange the annual reunion and we are fortunate to be able to meet in some of the former College buildings each year.  The Year Representatives maintain lists of current members of the Association and correspond with members twice each year.  Reunion notices are distributed in April and the Newsletter in November each year.  Our numbers are growing and currently stand at over 800 with over 1,500 names on the database.

THE ANNUAL NEWSLETTER

Each year the editors produce a Newsletter which includes reminiscences and photographs of life in the College, news of Old Students, and student and staff obituaries.  Details of the Annual Reunion are also included.  Articles and photographs for inclusion in the Newsletter are always very welcome.  They can be sent as e-mail attachments at anytime of the year to the Editor, using the Association e-mail address.  Copy has to be received by 31st July each year.
