Welcome to the Website of the Old Thorntonians  Association (Clapham)


The Association was formed in September 2006 to enable former pupils and staff of Henry Thornton School, Clapham, to stay in touch with one another, and to share views, news, memories and information relevant to both the school's and their own history

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Objectives

  • To provide a forum for Association members to exchange information and to stay in touch by various means: the newsletter, this website, e-mail, reunions and the membership directory
  • To serve as a focal point as appropriate for any UK regional or overseas communities of Old Thorntonians who may arrange to meet for local social events and reunions
  • To publish a newsletter approximately three times a year

 

    

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you are a former pupil or member of staff, and have not yet joined the Association, we urge you to do so today! The annual subscription for Full membership is only £10.00, and you can apply by clicking here
