OW Lunch, Corps of Drums and Creative Festival
Saturday 6 July 2024
On the last day of our month-long Warwick Schools Creative Festival ‘Home’, OWs and their spouses, partners, friends and families are warmly invited back to Warwick School for all or part of an amazing day.
Some of many things to enjoy on 6 July:
OW Lunch in the Pyne Room
Gather with fellow OWs for drinks (at 12 noon) and lunch (12:30-13:45). Tickets, £25, include a two-course buffet lunch with a glass of wine, beer or non-alcoholic alternative.
