Forthcoming Events

  • 11 Oct 26 - Over 70s Lunch
After 157 years of the familiar benches in the Dining Hall it has been given a new look and the dias at the far end has been removed. It was on that that the first school play was staged in 1874 and it hosted all major drama productions for the next 30 years There were four OCs playing for Blackheath in the National Village final at Lord's at the weekend - Benji Arengo-Jones (Loveday 2021), Luca La Costa (Cubitt 2021), James Fortesque (East 2025) and Archie Freeth (North 2021). A large turnout of Cranleigh parents and OCs turned out to watch but unfortunately Blackheath lost All change in Hall ... The golf course looking rather parched .... August 2026 Cranleigh Live outdoors on the South Field on a glorious June evening Cranleigh celebrated its 160th anniversary with a memorable concert at GLive in Guildford last Saturday, featuring a unique ensemble of current and former pupils, parents and staff. Congratulations to Adam Thomas (Loveday 2024) on his hundred on his Championship debut for Surrey v Sussex at The Oval. Team-mate Dom Sibley said: "All the senior guys out there can tell you how composed he was; obviously, his technique was so strong, so to see him go out there and play really well, to convert that into a hundred as well, and the way he went through the gears was so impressive. I'm sure that's going to be the first of many for AT." One of Cranleigh School’s most iconic and oldest landmarks disappeared last week with the felling of Clare’s Oak on Jubilee.
