You can ask questions, connect with other old school mates, browse and load photographs. Great for your own and genealogical research. Personally, I find it impossible to search for Thames School photos, but I am pointing out the site incase you can master searching through nearly 2000 albums.
2. There is a National Library project to save the information that was on the 'Old Friends' site.
See the progress of the project as at January 2019
