This is the fourth or fifth home of the Alsopian Register, and I hope it will be it's final one. We started out on 15th February 1997 with about half a dozen registrants, and have grown over the years to our current size. It's easy to be included - just leave me an email here, with your current location and the dates you attended (or taught) at Alsop, and I'll include your details in the next update (they usually take place about every couple of months, so please be patient).

This register is a static site, and different to, and separate from, the Mailing List which is now part of the Yahoo domain. The Mailing List, which is a dynamic (well, occasionally dynamic) forum run along the lines of most other Mailing Lists. To sign up with the mailing list visit the Alsop Yahoo Site. If you do not already have a Yahoo I.D., you will need to apply for one and then join the group. You do NOT have to read the mail on-line, but can have them forwarded individually to the email address of your choice.

Any problems or questions about joining the Yahoo List would be best directed to Ian Pritchard, the `listowner' - over to you Ian

Over the years the Mailing list has been running, it has generated some interesting discussions on topics such as The Herb Shop and Walton area, various teachers and their merits (or not), the new changes the school is undergoing, The Old School Tie and our Woodwork/Metalwork projects,etc.... join in, and have your say!

Most of the photographs of the area around the school (including those linked to above) are housed at Brian Griffiths Excellent web site. Brian has also posted four of those long photographs which were taken in 1960, 1963, 1966 & 1970- several of the listees have been identified - see if you can spot someone you know and then let the list know. Yours truly is on the bottom picture of the 1966 set, back row, 12th from the left.... now I know what the teachers meant by `sullen'!. Brian is in the top photo, front row, second from the left.

The idea of the page is to try and bring together, on the Internet, the former pupils and staff from my old school, Alsop High School, in Liverpool, England - we have been around a lot longer than any of the Reunited sites, and there's no charge!.

It would be nice to see this idea grow. It all started in OZ, with the Liobians, and, very shortly afterwards, with this page - long before the current raft of `Reunited' web sites began.

The Collegiate has now joined us - but what about the other Liverpool schools - or the girls schools, Blackburne House, Queen Mary etc..... there must be some of you out there?
We've been emulated by one non-Liverpool school at least - Park Hall School, Castle Bromwich, Birmingham, run by John Griffiths in New Zealand 

My thanks to many Old Boys & Teachers for providing me with scanned pictures of the school, inside and out, and some pages from the old school magazines - most of which you will see liberally sprinkled about these pages!

Once more.... to include your name in the Alsop Register, please leave me an email here. I shall reply, and will include your details asap.
