SOLD OUT: Parents ‘Call My Bluff’ Wine Night

Waterloo Hall, Wellington College

 

 

Join members of the Wellington Community Team and fellow parents for a fun ‘Call my Bluff’-style wine night. The evening is an opportunity to taste (and drink!) 6 wines in an informal, slightly competitive, atmosphere – what’s not to like!

The evening will be led by a brilliant panel made up of Murray Lindo (Head of the Wellington Community), Polly Gutteridge (Housemistress of the Hopetoun) and current parent Amanda Thomson. Amanda is CEO and Founder of Thomson & Scott, and creator of an entirely new sector in the wine industry.

Please note this event has now sold out.

The Old Wellingtonian Lodge No.3404

The Old Wellingtonian Lodge No.3404 is a Masonic Lodge for Old Wellingtonians, Governors, Masters and Officers of Wellington College, present and past, whether already a Freemason or those interested in becoming one. It is part of the Public School Lodges’ Council; a forum for the private lodges of many of our great public schools.

We welcome enquiries from anyone interested in finding out more about Freemasonry. Also, those who are already Freemasons are warmly welcomed to join us; especially those from PSLC Lodges or Old Wellingtonians from other Lodges – just ask!

Members of the Lodge meet in London three times each year: in February, October and November. For our May meeting we return to Wellington College to celebrate our Freemasonry and gives us the opportunity to support College charities and initiatives.
