Welcome to the Old Portmuthian Club. The OP Club's principal activity is facilitating contacts between former pupils of The Portsmouth Grammar School. The Club also publishes magazines and newsletters, organises social events in Portsmouth and elsewhere, and provides financial support to current and former pupils of PGS via the OP Charity.

The OP Club website has been designed in line with modern Internet technologies (XHTML, CSS, DOM) but your browser does not appear to properly support some of the required features.

So that you are not at a disadvantage, you will still see all of the information content but in a less organised form. However, you will have a better browsing experience if you upgrade to a modern browser.

Forthcoming Events in 2009

 

AGM 2009

The AGM of the Old Portmuthian Club will be held in the Rotunda, commencing at 2000 on Friday 27 February 2009. It will be preceded by a Drinks Reception from 1930. The meeting will be followed by a Finger Buffet Supper (for which there will be no charge). Only members of the Club may play an active part in the AGM but anyone interested will be very welcome, both at the meeting and particularly at the social gathering, which follows at approximately 2100.

A small change to the Club Rules is proposed in Item 8. This is necessary in order to bring these into line with present practice and to take account of the demise of the London Society.
