Steve Hodgkinson (OSA Treasurer) and Jeff Lewis (OSA Secretary) were able to say thank you and goodbye to Yvonne Nichols at Sandbach School recently. As Sarah’s PA she has been an incredible friend, help and supporter of the OSA for many years.
I trust this email finds you well. I am honoured to be asked to be the President again and look forward to the year ahead. The Old Sandbachians, like so many organisations, had to put events on hold for almost 2 years. Thankfully, as restrictions have lifted, we have started to resume normal service.
It is with the deepest sadness that we are letting you know of the death of James Steele aged 91 in late September.
Like so many of his contemporaries, Jim was an Old Sandbachian through and through, being proud of all that the school stood for and very grateful for the education it gave him.
On Saturday 27th November 2021, for the first time in more than two years due to Covid restrictions, the Old Sandbachians’ Association were finally back where we belong – at Sandbach School.
On Sunday 14th November 2021, as has been tradition for many years, Sandbach hosted a Remembrance parade consisting of veterans, cadets and many other groups, ahead of a wreath-laying ceremony at the war memorial in the Cobbled Square.
I was sorting through some Old Sandbachian papers and a I came across the President’s report for the 2017 AGM. In the same plastic folder, I found a written record of a conversation between Geoff Piggott and Richard Bass.
We are delighted to be able to go back to the School for a Saturday Lunch reception and an opportunity to remember Reg Dunning and Geoff Piggott.
The Old Sandbachians’ Association is delighted to announce another – and hopefully final – new date for our much Covid-postponed London 2022 Reception. This popular event was originally due to be held in March 2020.
We hope this letter finds you well. So much has happened in the last 2 years, which was the last time the Old Sandbachians was able to hold any sort of event. The world has been turned upside down by the pandemic, and England nearly won another football trophy,
Following the recent sad passing of Sandbach School teacher and legend, Geoff Piggot, and in recognition of the importance that Sandbach School played in Geoff’s life, the hearse carrying Geoff to his private funeral passed through the grounds of the School
