The Richard Hale Association would like to invite all old boys of Richard Hale School to visit the Association's new website at www.richard-hale-association.org.uk .

The Association is the Old Boys' Society of Richard Hale (formerly Hertford Grammar School) and works to maintain links between all former pupils of the school, whatever age they may be, or whatever location they may now live.

Membership only costs £15 to join and provides access to facilities at the Hale Club, in Hoe Lane Ware and has a variety of associated clubs (Hertford Rugby Club, Ware (Old Hertfordians) Cricket Club, Old Hertfordians Golfing Society and the Old Hertfordian Masonic Lodge). For those that are based further away, the Association produces an excellent annual magazine, and access to the members-only sections of our website, which has a free "friendsreunited" function for you to contact old mates from school.

The Association has three formal gatherings each year (an AGM and lunch in December, an annual dinner at Easter and a Summer garden party in July) as well as many informal gatherings. Finally, of course, by joining the Richard Hale Association you would be supporting your old school.

Most importantly, for old boys, we are planning on organising era-specific reunions over the next 12-18 months, so join now to make sure you are invited!

Finally, we would particularly welcome those people who register with the new website to share their memories and anecdotes (good and bad!) from their time at school on the website's guestbook.
