WGSOBA is open to former pupils of the school (Page is unofficial) email is for direct contact with the Association. http://www.adastraoldboys.com/
Should you wish to contact the page admin directly try Messenger With the introduction of comprehensive education in Crosby, the school became part of Manor High School but staff and pupils remained at the old school for a further year until space became available in Manor High School. The Old Boys' Association was formed in 1938 but owes its origins to the Old Boys' Football Club founded in 1924.

At the monthly brunch on Friday Lol Sinclair suggested that I should post a few snaps he took at the Old Boys Dinner in December.
So here they are.
Lol tells me that he's already putting the framework of the 2026 magazine together, so if anyone has anything to contribute please contact Lol directly at [email protected]

Just putting this out there as a bit of nostalgia:
South Road in Waterloo Then and Now South Road in Waterloo. This reel explores the long drag in Waterloo, a hub for the shore, from the late Victorian period to present day.

Friday brekky group
December update:
About a dozen of us met for breakfast at the Liver on Friday. There is still some hope of a return to 'school' in the spring if the bistro reopens? But nobody knows if this may happen atm.
There were ca. 45 of us at the Annual Dinner last night.
The meal still represents good value for money & the Presidents address by Andrew Lovelady was perfect in terms of content & length. As usual it was good to see & chat with old chums.
However the diminishing number of attendees reminds us that we are not getting any younger even if some of us have a mindset that's still in the halcyon days of the 70's 😆

I've had this passed to me by Pete Hudson with his permission to post. Having checked my own I feel they may not be suitable for general release.
For any old boys travelling back here for the dinner on the 6th of December: Please note you are cordially invited to join us on Friday 5th at 11am at the Liver Hotel where we assemble for our monthly breakfast meet.

FYI Annual Dinner is Saturday 6th December
December update:
1) Thirteen of us met up for breakfast at the Liver Hotel on Friday morning. We are settled there for the forseeable future but retain the hope that at some point we may be able to return to school.
2) There was a rumour of a rival breakfast meet in St John's Road on Thursday? We suggest that those involved may wish to come & join the rest of us on the first Friday of the month? (Alternately we could gatecrash your event, 🤣😂🤣😂as many of us gained experience in this tactic at parties in the 70's.)
3) Saturday saw the 85th annual dinner take place at WLGC. Around 60 attended. We understand that mortality will steadily take it's toll on potential new attendees however I believe we had a couple of first timers? Personally I was glad to chat to Brian Godfrey from the '66-71 cohort who I'd not seen for 53 years.
4) Website is still down. (Lol looking for help to reinstate)
5) Next breakfast Friday 3rd Jan 10am.
6) Finally compliments of the season to all old boys & their families. See you in 2025!
