On the final day of the academic year, 4 July 2025, the Old Elizabethan Association held its annual Guernsey Dinner in College Hall. This year, we returned to round-table seating to accommodate the 93 attendees. Guests were welcomed with drinks in Perrot Court Quad before gathering for group photographs on the College steps and then proceeding into the Hall.

The Guest of Honour, Bruce Parker (4747), delivered a highly entertaining speech, sharing humorous anecdotes and comical mishaps from his career in the media. Jules Upson (11313) eloquently delivered the Floreat, and Principal Jenny Palmer (8989) provided an engaging recap of Elizabeth College’s key developments and focus areas over the past year. Full coverage of these speeches will be featured in the upcoming edition of The Elizabeth Magazine, due for release before Christmas.

The evening was a resounding success, filled with reconnections, fond memories, and new friendships.

Special thanks to Zoe Gosling (8993), whose photography captured the spirit of the event so beautifully.
