Message from the Editor
Welcome to the second edition of rhuba rb.
Following the long awaited publication of
The Chronicle we are now back on schedule
and are delighted to be able to present our
OSE update.
We have some interesting stories in this
edition including many about young OSE.
In particular there have been a number of
OSE who have undertaken cycle challenges
for charity. There are also reports of a
number of OSE Events held recently and
we hope they may inspire you to join us for
one or more events here or elsewhere in the UK (or the world!) sometime in the
near future. We would like to thank those OSE Reps here and overseas for making
the effort to organise events in their area. As our stories prove, they are worth the
hard work. We are looking forward to 2013 when the School will be celebrating its
150th anniversary and we would dearly like to be in contact with as many OSE as
possible. There will be a number of special celebrations throughout the year and
hope that you may wish to join us for some of them. Please check the calendar
of events on the back page and keep up to date by checking the OSE pages of the
website.
If you have not heard from us for some time we may not have all your details.
We send the majority of event information by e-mail rather than post.
Please e-mail with your e-mail address and any
other details to ensure you are kept in touch with what is happening.
Best wishes.
Pamela Keeley-Butler, Alumni Relations Officer
Editor.

OSE We need your help!
Do you have any photos of your time
at Teddies? We would love to have
either originals or copies to add to the
SES Archives.
With the 150th Anniversary
celebrations in 2013 there will be
many publications and events and we
would like to be able to share as many
of our historical pictorial records as
possible.
We need all the help we can get from
OSE.
The Archives contain a huge
collection already but we would
welcome your contributions of
photographs, school records and
memorabilia. Please e-mail or
telephone Pamela with details.
