FORMER pupils of a Pershore school in the 1960s are being invited to a reunion.

Ex-students of Pershore Secondary Modern, now Pershore High School, will be getting together on Saturday, March 16.

It will be from 12.30pm until 4.30pm at Pershore Sports Club, Defford Road.

The former pupils are in their early 70s now and have been meeting up over the years since they left in 1964, 1965 or 1966.

They are trying to find as many old classmates as possible, including those who may not have attended the reunions before.

There will be food, a bar and car parking facilities at the event which was held last year at the sports club and attracted around 45 people.

That included Paul Ludlow, Tony Bullock, Derek Felton and Dick Price who are pictured at the 2023 reunion and left the school in 1965.

One of the organisers Gill Robinson said: “We had the first reunion in 1990 when we were in our 40s and it was a big event at the school.

“There were well over 100 people there for that one.

“We have done another half-dozen or so over the years.

“Everyone who comes is so delighted that we have done it so we are going to make it a regular thing now. If you know of anyone then please spread the word.”

Anyone interested in attending or getting in touch is welcome to call Gill on 01905 943323 or Val Smith on 01386 554101.
