Rickmansworth Old Students Association - The Rosarians

Welcome to the Rosarians Website please browse through to update yourselves on what has, or is happening in the Rosarians, also take time to view what is planned for the future. Rosarian membership is offered to former pupils and members of staff of Rickmansworth School.

Please click on any of the above icons for the page and information that you require.

The Association is run by an elected Committee who meet regularly at three monthly intervals, with an AGM being held every March. There are nearly 2,500 members worldwide, personal details of all being held on a secure database which is governed by the terms of the Data Protection Act and is administered by the Database Holder.

The main task of the committee which consists of a maximum of twelve members, is to primarily organise such events as former pupils / teachers reunions. An associated newsletter is produced prior to each reunion, which will be distributed by email or post as appropriate, and it will also be available for download through this website - please see below. Hopefully we will be producing an annual newsletter on non reunion years, but this will only be available in those years for download from this website. A list of the current committee members follows immediately after the Headmasters message.

Our Headmaster's Message

Dr Stephen Burton, the School's Headmaster has kindly endorsed our website in his message to all readers as follows:-

I am very pleased to be able to endorse the Rosarian's website. The Rosarians provide an important link between the school and past pupils. This development will help secure this bridge and ensure that future and existing Rosarians can communicate effectively. I would encourage all former pupils of Rickmansworth School to join the Rosarians and to take the opportunity, through this association, to support the school and also maintain contact with old school friends.

Remember that the friendships that you made at school will never be forgotten, even after the passing of many years. It is important in this busy world to prioritise this opportunity. Likewise, Rickmansworth School, has been founded and sustained by the work of past pupils and staff and still relies on your support. We have increasing demands made upon us with limited resources but we are still determined to do the best for every pupil in our care.

As a Rosarian you can support the school in fundraising and networking, please take the time to think about whether you should put something back into a school that gave you so much.

S P Burton

Headmaster

( The committee wish to record their thanks to Dr Burton and the members of staff at the school for their continued support of the Rosarians)
