Phil Robinson OW 100 club administrator - Philrobinson55@btinternet.com I have been made aware of a revitalised Facebook page recently renamed Wymondham College Alumni which has lots of interesting comments and reminicences:- https://www.facebook.com/groups/1532014457127574 It's a Private Group so you might need to be approved by a current member. Just a reminder that the The Chapel Project appeal was launched with the aim of preserving the last remaining Nissen hut at the college. The Old Wymondhamians have made a substantial donation to this cause although it doesn't show up on this running total page. https://donatemyschool.com/project/page/wymondhamcollege?page=1&per-page=10 More details can be seen at here:- https://www.wymondhamcollege.org/404/news/post/41/the-chapel-project If any of the above links do not work, please copy and paste into your browser.
