ABOUT

For many Ampleforth pupils, their time at Ampleforth College was a time that they look back upon with fond memories. The Ampleforth Society brings together many Old Amplefordians to participate in various events, reunions, and social and sports clubs. Old Amplefordians may use the post-nominal letters OA in correspondence with one another. Many OA events take place back at the “Shack” allowing current and form Amplefordians to engage with one another. Many still maintain close friendly relationships with the monks of the Abbey who played a significant role whilst at the school.
