ABOUT US

WHO ARE THE OLD COLCESTRIANS?

The Old Colcestrian Societywas founded in 1901 and has a membership of over 1,100 former students and staff of CRGS. Members are of all ages and are spread throughout the UK and abroad.

The Society's objectives include:

  • Maintaining the associations and traditions of the School and the Society;
  • Furthering the interests of the School and the well-being of past and present students; and
  • Fostering fellowship and goodwill between past and present students.

The Society is run by a committee and officers , who are elected by the membership at the AGM.

WHAT WE DO

We have a calendar of events both sporting and social (including School and CRGSA events) designed to help members keep in touch and to help support school.

We hold a black tie dinner each December and a Reunion Day each summer. Both take place at the School. We have also recently reintroduced an Old Colcestrian London dinner at the House of Commons.

The ‘Camul Sports Club’ is a recently-established group of former CRGS students who organise Rugby, Football and Cricket fixtures with local teams. For more information or to get involved, please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . The club’s progress can also be followed on Facebook here.

The Society also sponsors the production of the School magazine, ‘The Colcestrian’. We contribute a range of articles and news items, and make it available to our members every year.

We seek to develop close links with CRGS students offering careers counselling to Sixth Formers, and funding a bursary to help students to further their studies during the summer vacation.

We also support the School with a variety of fundraising initiatives.

We welcome any offers of help and suggestions for events and other ways to support the School - please contact one of the Society's officers - we’d love to hear from you!
