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.

50 Years Ago

 

From 'The Portmuthian' 50 years ago

We offer this new item in the hope that it will bring back pleasant memories. Each term certain items will be reproduced. The editorial is always an snapshot of the time; the list of leavers reminds us of the chosen careers of our contemporaries; the school notes help to set the scene; and a selected item of interest may provoke a reflective response from those directly involved.

Perhaps OPs would kindly indicate if this exercise is worth while and whether or not the chosen extracts are among those they prefer. Please let us know what you think via the Contact Us page.
