This return visit is open to ALL former Hertford Old Blues, but there has been a particular drive to attract back former members of
Houses 5 and 2. Please click here to be put in touch with the individuals concerned. People intend to turn up at the Museum late morning, adjourning in groups to lunch somewhere close by. Those who are staying into the evening will probably meet up again, somewhere like Café Rouge. Please note as this is not a ‘formal’ or 'organised' event, no arrangements have been made for access to the buildings on the school site in Hertford. |
