All members of the OBA are encouraged to join the King's Bruton Community Site, giving them access to find fellow OBs, attend events and keep abreast of news.
With only a few exceptions, pupils at King's automatically become members of the Association upon leaving school. The Association is an independent body, run alongside King's Bruton, and is in regular contact with the Headmaster and teaching staff. We are grateful for the support given to us by the School for those activities which take place in Bruton.
The Association is a loyal and passionate supporter of the future of King's Bruton, generously contributing to major King's events and campaigns, such as The Queen Elizabeth Music School and the School Bursary Scheme. The Old Brutonian Association organises various events throughout the year; the London Lunch held in December, the AGM and several Bruton based social gatherings. The Rules also require the publishing of an annual newsletter, 'The Old Brutonian' and the maintenance of a charitable trust.
The Old Brutonian Association office is run by Rose Vigers-Belgeonne, the Hon Secretary and Emilie Head, Assistant Secretary. Please use the contact details below to get in touch with the OBA office.

Greetings Old Brutonians,
It is with pleasure that I welcome you to your new and improved Old Brutonian Association (OBA) website. This website is the culmination of a goal that I had some 3 years ago to encourage and bring more Old Brutonians (OBs) to the OBA and make it easier for OBs to keep in touch, as well as re-establish contact with old school friends. I am pleased to report to you that in conjunction with King’s Bruton, and after months of implementation, the new OBA website is up and running. The new OBA website has additional functionality to enable you to connect with old school friends and for those who are interested, will eventually allow older OB’s to mentor younger ones and to pass on some of our hard-learned knowledge and experience.
Many people worked hard in the background to make this website a reality and I am thankful to each and every one of them. In order to take advantage of the new website, all you need to do is register and optionally indicate that you are happy to be contacted by other OBs and then start contacting your old friends.
'Floreat Brutonia',
David Fleming (B72/76), President OBA.
