It was a pleasure for our Foundation Director, Samantha, and the Head, Claire Bentley, to spend time in New York recently, reconnecting with Old Culfordians and hearing about their remarkable careers and the impact of a Culford education on those based in the States. ⁠
⁠
They hosted a series of one-to-one meetings during their jam-packed trip, as well as a drinks reception at The Harvard Club of New York for OCs.⁠
⁠
Thank you to everyone who joined us and shared their stories. These conversations are a powerful reminder that the School's influence extends far beyond Suffolk, and we look forward to strengthening these connections in the future.

🏇🏼 A new pathway into the world of horse racing at Culford.⁠
⁠
Our new Horse Racing Diploma offers Sixth Form pupils the opportunity to combine school life with hands-on experience at the British Racing School in Newmarket, learning from industry professionals and developing practical skills with thoroughbred racehorses.⁠
⁠
One day each week, pupils will take part in a varied programme of lectures, fitness training and practical riding and stable work, all within a professional, industry-standard environment.⁠
⁠
With a recognised qualification and a range of future opportunities, the diploma can lead to employment in racing, a structured gap year or further study, including the BSc (Hons) Horseracing Industry degree. For those keen to explore opportunities further afield, the global racing industry can also open doors internationally.⁠
⁠
An exciting opportunity for pupils passionate about horses and keen to turn that interest into a future career.⁠

The Charity Restaurant has been an annual event at Culford for over 30 years and we are delighted to confirm the date for 2026.

⁠The Christmas Cracker Charity Restaurant will take place on Tuesday 24 and Wednesday 25 November in Old Hall from 18.30 onwards, here at Culford.

This year's restaurant will support local organisation Tom's Trust, the UK's leading charity dedicated to providing psychological support to children with brain tumours and their families.

Look out for more details from the Senior School Charities Committee, week commencing 12 October.
⁠
We hope that you will come and enjoy an evening at the Culford restaurant.

We are looking for OCs to come and speak to the Sixth Form on Thursday 12 November. ⁠
⁠
Take part in an informal Q&A session from 10.00 until 12.30 where you will have the opportunity to speak candidly to students about your own journey since leaving Culford, whatever pathway you have taken.⁠
⁠
You can offer advice and insight into this important stage in life whether you have been to university, taken a gap year or started work or an apprenticeship. ⁠
⁠
If you left Culford in the last ten years and would like to support your fellow Culfordians in this way, please contact Lucy in the Foundation Office [email protected]

Pupils were delighted to be invited to the Girls on Track UK event at RAF Wattisham, an inspiring day designed to introduce girls to the exciting worlds of motorsport and engineering.⁠
⁠
They got stuck into a fantastic range of hands-on activities, from taking on a pit stop challenge and exploring a rally car, to meeting female Army engineers, getting up close to Apache helicopters and chatting to firefighters from Stansted Airport. ⁠
⁠
Hearing directly from women working in engineering and motorsport is so important, particularly in a sector where women currently make up just 10% of engineers.⁠
⁠
One of the highlights was meeting Old Culfordian Amy McCullough (2012–2021), now a Data Engineer with Orange Racing. Amy helped the girls analyse data captured from the team’s winning race, which saw them crowned British GT3 champions.⁠
⁠
And there was an extra-special full-circle moment: Girls on Track played a key role in inspiring Amy into a career in motorsport, and she is now helping to inspire the next generation.⁠
⁠
We are very proud of Amy and the work she is doing to encourage more girls to consider careers in motorsport and engineering.

Our Flashback Friday emails have given OCs and EAS a trip down memory lane for six years, so we decided it was time to bring them to life with an event at Culford.

Guests enjoyed tea and coffee in Old Hall whilst they perused the extensive displays of photographs, artefacts and uniform from the archive. These were a great source of interest and joy, and prompted many conversations.

Guests took an optional tour around the School and Culford Hall itself before a delicious two-course lunch was served in the Billiard Room, during which our Senior School music scholars performed a wonderful array of pieces.

The day was deemed a great success so now we need to plan another one!
