109 years ago this month, the Cadet Corps was formed at Whitgift Middle School. Their first duty, unfortunately, was to parade for the funeral of the three Currie brothers, who were killed by a Zeppelin bomb on their home. Trinity Croydon Alumni Trinity School John Whitgift Foundation

During this year’s Remembrance, we recall the heroic story of Captain Ernest Bonny who, in WW2 and without any training, diffused multiple mines and booby trap bombs to safeguard his platoon’s progress in Burma. He was awarded the Military Cross. Trinity Croydon Alumni Trinity School

Then and now. The Headmaster’s corridor in the 1960s and also 2024…….not much has changed - the rubber flooring is still looking in great condition. Do you remember the name of Oliver Berthoud’s dog? Trinity Croydon Alumni John Whitgift Foundation Trinity School #archive

Being able to connect our first headmaster right to our ninth and current headmaster, through the Ingrams family story, was a privilege.
