In October 1863, 16 young men embarked on their educational journey as the first students at Ipswich Grammar School. Now, 162 years later, Foundation Day has become a valued tradition, offering current students and Old Boys a moment to reflect on the school's legacy.
To commemorate the occasion, Old Boys are invited to a special assembly featuring Guest Speaker Mr Stewart Drinkeld (Class of 1995), a proud Old Boy, Director of Boarding and long-serving staff member of Ipswich Grammar School.
Date: Friday 10 October 2025
