Sporting celebrations across a half-century!
Our sporting tradition was celebrated with a visit from past pupil and former captain of the school’s football team, Mr John Rosser, of Cowbridge. Mr Rosser attended St John’s in the 1950s and presented the school with a framed photograph of the 1957 football team.
In that year Mr Rosser also won the coveted Victor Ludorum cup (winner of the school sports day competition) and current football captain and 2009 Victor Ludorum, Tom Brown, received the photograph on behalf of the school. Mr Rosser also told the pupils about another member of the school’s 1957 football team, former England test cricketer Graham Roope. We have a thriving Alumni network and still maintain regular contact with several members who attended St John’s in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. We are always delighted to be visited by past pupils of any age and to hear about their fond memories of their time at the school
