On the 20th and 21st June 2024, ACS Cobham welcomed back over 50 alumni from the USA, Scandinavia, Australia, and the UK to celebrate their 20-year school reunion.
The weekend consisted of a Friday night drinks and food reception held at ‘The Bear’ in Esher, followed by a family day on the Saturday, held in ‘The Walled Garden’ on the ACS Cobham campus. The class of 2004 had the opportunity to introduce their families to each other and again reconnect with their fellow peers and faculty, who kindly returned too. The number of people who attended the event really shows the everlasting connection that ACS provides to its students, and we thank you for all those that returned to school.
On Friday 30th May, we welcomed back 27 alumni from the USA, Scandinavia, Latvia, Australia, Nigeria and the UK to the ACS Cobham class of 2014 back to school as part of their ten year homecoming reunion. The group enjoyed celebrating their ten year reunion with a drinks reception, dinner, and guided tour of the school. Thank you to everyone for coming back to school and we look forward to welcoming you back soon
The ACS Cobham Black Tie Event held on November 18th was a resounding success, marking an evening of celebration, togetherness and Cobham spirit. The event, hosted at Mercedes Benz World, was an opportunity to bring together the ACS Cobham community, including faculty, parents, and alumni. The night featured a delightful combination of great food, dancing, and speeches from Head of School, Barny Sandow and Chief Executive, Tim Cagney.
The ACS Cobham Black Tie Event not only showcased the school’s commitment to excellence but also fostered a sense of unity among its community members, making it a memorable and impactful occasion for all who attended. We’d like to thank everyone that joined us on the evening.
On Thursday 2nd November we held our first ACS Alumni & Friends London Networking Event. The venue was kindly provided to us by ACS Cobham Class of 2013 alum, Felix Bollen and Michele Tieghi at their brewery, German Kraft Beer in Mercato Metropolitano in Elephant and Castle.
It was fantastic to see such a great turnout, with over 50 former students, staff and parents joining us for the evening! Big thanks to ACS Cobham Head of Visual Arts, Cy Iravani, for making an appearance, it’s wonderful to see so many of our former students showing appreciation for their former teachers. We were also delighted to see former ACS Cobham/Knightsbridge teacher Dave Haynes who worked at ACS for over 30 years, and former Cobham teacher Ann Haynes.
Seeing how many of our alumni are still connected, as well as being able to form new connections with fellow alumni was the highlight of the evening and we look forward to many more events like this!
On Friday 16th June 2023 we held the ACS Cobham Class of 2013 10 Year Reunion Event on the grounds of Heywood House. It was fantastic to see so many returning alumni and hear all about what they have been up to since leaving ACS. Hearing their memories as they walked around the school, and being able to share this experience with their former teachers was heart-warming!
Special thanks to all the teachers and staff that joined us, the evening wouldn’t have been the same without them. We would also like to thank ACS CEO, Tim Cagney, for his words, as well as a special mention to Head of Visual Arts, Cy Iravani who delivered a heartfelt speech on behalf of the faculty!
We look forward to being able to host the next class celebration event soon.
On Sunday 21st May 2023, we welcomed ACS Cobham alumni and their families back to school. Lunch was provided in Heywood House, and for many this was a memorable experience as it was where many former students remembered having their lessons. Year books were on display for enjoyment and the group were welcomed by Barny Sandow, Head of School before enjoying a guided tour of the school.
The Cobham reunion was combined with the school’s annual summer fair so there were fun activities, food stalls, fun fair and entertainment to enjoy for the whole family – young and old.
On the evening of Saturday 20th May 2023, we hosted our first ever ACS Alumni London Reception. This was a wonderful opportunity for former students from all our schools past and present to come together for a fun, relaxed evening of reminiscence and reconnection.
The social event was held at the Brasserie Blanc on the Southbank, London, and proved a popular choice with a private room just for ACS Alumni where they enjoyed champagne and canapes throughout the evening. Thank you so much to our alumni that joined us having travelled from various points around the globe. It was a fantastic opportunity to hear what all the ACSers in the room were getting up since leaving school. A very big thank you to Barny Sandow, Cobham Head of School, Jeremy Lewis, former Egham Head of School and Cy Iravani, Cobham Head of Visual Arts, for joining us – your students enjoyed being able to reminisce with you.
On the 20th May 2023 ACS Alumni and their families were invited back to school to join in with the ACS Hillingdon International Family Food Fair. As well as enjoying the schools planned festivities, the alumni had the opportunity to go a tour of the school and reminisce about their time in their favourite classrooms.
To be able to see the school in all its glory, with the next generation enjoying it the same way they had was a very special moment for our Hillingdon alumni. Having the opportunity to explore the school and hear about each other’s different school experiences spanning 40 years was truly special.
Over the summer of 2023 we held our first Hillingdon alumni reunion weekend, starting with a dinner at The Alchemist in London followed by an international family fun day held on campus, where alumni and their families had the chance to reconnect, reminisce and remember their time at ACS.
It was an incredibly special weekend as those who had lost touch reunited and for others it was a chance to catch up in an environment they know so well. It was a weekend full of joy as alumni shared stories of their time at our school and spoke about the many adventures that have encountered since leaving. Classmates across multiple decades had the opportunity to see and hear how different their experiences were but one thing remained the same – the fondness for ACS Hillingdon and the bond between those who spent their formative years together here.
In 2023 we celebrated our special 55th anniversary by hosting two ACS alumni dinners. Our very first Presidential Dinner took place in Houston and the second in New York, where we got to talk about Project Tomorrow – our Campaign for ACS Cobham – which will ensure all of our students are ready to thrive both at school and after they leave through a future-ready centre. It was incredibly special to reunite our alumni and we were so pleased to have them all attend.
Thank you to ACS Chief Executive Time Cagney for hosting and to our Chapter Leaders Dawn Scheirer Yeung, Hillary Brown, Jeff Axford, Mike Meserle and Tade Olulade for their support leading up to the dinners.
