Join the Downe House Society today to find and network with friends and colleagues and receive the latest news and updates.
4000+ pupils, alumnae and parents (past and present) form our community’s global professional and social network. The Downe House Society exists to inspire and support the students as well as being a wonderful social and professional network for all its members. It harnesses the talents and expertise of the members of the Downe House community. Through a wide range of social and professional activities we nurture mutually beneficial life-long relationships with the School and with its members.
'We are delighted to have relaunched our new community website. Whether you are an alumna, current or former parent, staff member or friend of the School, you are all welcome. It is our aim to bring our community together to create a relationship with Downe House for life, whether that be through sharing news, attending social gatherings or supporting one another's careers. I am most grateful to everyone who contributes to its work.'
