he Old Pelican Society has increased in numbers again this year and
we are pleased to welcome OAs who responded to the personalised
letter sent in the spring from the Society's Committee. Benefactors'
Day this year was a special occasion with some wives joining OAs on
a unique visit to King's, I think Deidre Davis even won the shooting
competition! he Committee were pleased to have time before
Benefactors' day with the Headmaster, new Deputy Headmaster
and Director of Marketing to hear about the future of the school,
academic standards and what King's is renowned for. he campaign
to encourage more OAs to leave a bequest in their wills was discussed
and the schools' proposal to create an endowment fund that will
support bursaries and scholarships. King's is committed to starting an
endowment using some of the funds from the imminent sale of the Convent.
Chairman of the Society, David Stott OA, Woodard 1945 has been joined by Robert Davis OA,
Woodard 1952 in promoting membership and both are very happy to talk to any OA about
becoming a member. David Stott - 0208748 5393, Robert Davis - 02072748002.
OPS members, and their partners, have received a distinctive lapel badge in white and gold
enamel. A codicil template is now also available on the King's College website to download,
or please ring the OA Club Office for a copy; this enables OAs to amend their will in favour of
King's without incurring the cost of a new will. Anyone considering this option should still seek the advice of their solicitor.
Please contact Leisa Lavender if you are considering leaving a gift to King's - 012823 328238/07968 104409. You may wish
a particular area of the school to benefit or to discuss named scholarship/bursary awards.
Our next OPS event is a Christmas lunch at the Cavalry and Guards Club in a private dining room (details below). All
members will receive a priority invitation before the event which is extended to fellow OAs and partners. Members of the
choir will join us for lunch then entertain guests with carols and hopefully encourage some to lend their voices!
