Back to school after 40 years

A group who were at Spalding Grammar School together 40 years ago recently got together for a special reunion.

Stuart Gilks and Steve Lane tracked down around 90 or so peers with 25 attending the champagne reception at the school on Saturday, June 22.

Also in attendance were former teacher Brian Sleight BEM along with Mark and Michael Fordham, son of the late John Fordham who was head at the time.

Steve said: “The catch up stirred up so many memories.

“It was such an enjoyable event we’re already thinking of future get togethers.”

Any former year groups interested in a reunion can get in touch at osma@spaldinggrammar.lincs.sch.uk
