Old Scholars
Once a Blackfriars boy – always a Blackfriars boy.
Blackfriars Old Scholars enjoy a continued connection with the school after graduation and are regularly welcomed back for reunions and events. Through the school’s Development Office, the Blackfriars Old Scholars Association endeavours to stay in touch with graduates as they progress through the various stages of their life post school.
