Welcome to our TGS site which has been set up to give Old Thornburians a focus for their nostalgia.

Thanks to our many contributors it is developing into a very general site to appeal to all ages who attended the school (including staff!).

We hope that you enjoy browsing the contents, and welcome all contributions.
