About Shebbear College
The Old Shebbearians’ Association (OSA) was formed in 1908 with the aim of keeping the spirit of community and friendship strong between, former, current and future pupils. It plays a big part in the school community with Old Shebbearians sharing a special bond.
Friendships forged and values learnt at Shebbear are never forgotten and our alumni have a strong connection with the school, with many returning to work here and others visiting to give careers talks or help with events.
The OSA hold a Reunion Dinner at the Royal Airforce Club in Piccadilly each year. A glamorous affair, this is a fantastic chance for Old Shebbearians of all ages to network and get together. We also hold reunions for alumni at the school – a fantastic opportunity to see how it has changed and reminisce!
