Founded in 1990, the Rokeby Old Boys Club organises an annual Reunion Dinner with a Guest Speaker (usually an Old Boy). Reunions are well supported by a wide age range of Old Boys including those who went to Rokeby at The Downs. Reunions may be attended by Members over the age of 18.
Membership is available to Old Boys and Honorary Membership is available to Teaching Staff (past and present). To join the ROBC please send your contact details to robc@rokeby.org.uk.
The next Reunion Dinner will be held in 2021. Please contact robc@rokeby.org.uk for more details.
