This year, we particularly remember three of our alums who Fell in 1915 at the battles of Festubert, Gallipoli and Loos. They were aged just 18 and 19. We also honour and remember all alumni and the masters who have died in wars past. We will remember them.

Being able to connect our first headmaster right to our ninth and current headmaster, through the Ingrams family story, was a privilege.
Descendants of Trinity’s First Headmaster Make a Special Visit to Trinity School It was a privilege to welcome the family of Trinity’s first-ever Headmaster – William Ingrams (1882-1905) – to the school last week. @ArchiveTrinity Read more here: https://t.co/IstbViUQjC

Great to be at Charterhouse School for a gathering of fellow Archivists. Fabulous buildings, history and good to share our common ideas about archive collections. @TrinitySchAlumn @TrinityCroydon #archives

The final act of Remembrance 2024. All the metal poppies representing our Fallen former students & masters, have now been removed from our War Memorial Garden, laid out side by side & packed away for another year. We will always remember them. @TrinitySchAlumn @TrinityCroydon

Then and now. The Headmaster’s corridor in the 1960s and also 2024…….not much has changed - the rubber flooring is still looking in great condition. Do you remember the name of Oliver Berthoud’s dog? @TrinitySchAlumn @JohnWhitgiftFdn @TrinityCroydon #archive

During this year’s Remembrance, we recall the heroic story of Captain Ernest Bonny who, in WW2 and without any training, diffused multiple mines and booby trap bombs to safeguard his platoon’s progress in Burma. He was awarded the Military Cross. @TrinitySchAlumn @TrinityCroydon

Success does not come without hard work, planning and a great team united in harmony. To the Speakers, the Ambassadors, the Alumni and Development Team and to all our Trinity Bursary Fund Supporters - together we are unstoppable.
Our Reception for Supporters of the Trinity Bursary Fund at Mansion House was an outstanding success. We wanted to take a moment to dedicate this post to our young alumni ambassadors who assisted on the night. Teamwork makes the dream work!

We will remember them… As we prepare for this year’s Remembrance, our War Memorial Garden has had its annual makeover and transformation. Thanks to our Gardeners & Estates Team plus the Development and Alumni Relations Team, the Metal Poppies & lovely Cyclamen are now planted.

109 years ago this month, the Cadet Corps was formed at Whitgift Middle School. Their first duty, unfortunately, was to parade for the funeral of the three Currie brothers, who were killed by a Zeppelin bomb on their home. @TrinitySchAlumn @TrinityCroydon @JohnWhitgiftFdn

We pay homage to a former student who lost his life in the Battle of Britain in October 1940. Peter McIntosh is commemorated on both our War Memorial & on a special plaque dedicated to our four BofB pilots, who lost their lives. @TrinitySchAlumn @TrinityCroydon @JohnWhitgiftFdn

The new @TrinitySchRugby 1st XV shirts with a nod to the ‘chocolate brown’ of former years when we had the Cambridge Blue plus Brown stripes. Does anyone still have their 1950/1960s shirt? @Trinity_RFC @TrinitySchAlumn @JohnWhitgiftFdn #Rugby #croydon
