RATCLIFFIAN ASSOCIATION EVENTS 35

THE BIRMINGHAM DINNER 1

FRIDAY 10TH NOVEMBER 2017

This year’s Birmingham Dinner took place in our regular haunt,
the Opus Restaurant, where Old Ratcliffians gathered to enjoy a
sparkling wine reception, followed by an excellent three-course
dinner in a cosy private room.

In the words of our President, Sebako Siame (91), who spoke
on the evening, ‘Events like these demonstrate the enduring
strength that is Ratcliffe. If we think about the bonds here, the
conversations that have flowed throughout the evening, the mix 2
of people in the room that span the decades, all enjoying such a
beautiful and lively evening together, this really is what Ratcliffe
is all about.’

The Headmaster, Jon Reddin, followed with an engaging update
on the continued progress and successes of the School, and
he highlighted the significance of the values and heritage that
underpin the sense of spirit and community at Ratcliffe today.

Old Ratcliffians are encouraged to continue to support the
Association to maintain its success, which, by attending the
fabulous events that are organised, is really no hardship at all!
