This is published six times a year, and contains news of the whole King’s Community – Senior and Junior Schools, the Rowans, the Squirrels, the Friends of KCS, the Community Partnership Programmes with other local schools and, of course, some news of the OKC. The OKC Committee believes that the KCS Community Newsletter would be of interest to OKC Newsletter subscribers, and has arranged to fund its supply and distribution without, for the time being at least, any increase in subscriptions. The usual OKC Newsletter will continue (but without the inclusion of School news) as an enclosure in three of the six Community Newsletters, all the contents being supplied by the OKC office, as usual. This is the second of the new-style OKC Newsletters. The Hon Secretary would be pleased to hear any comments from readers about the change.

  • The History of Sutton & Epsom
    THE HISTORY OF SUTTON & EPSOM RFC Founded in 1881 Club History Jeff Hume - 12/01/2004 (updated 01/02/2011) Picture this. It's the early 1870's and our British Empire is at its height. Queen Victoria has at long last returned from her mourning at Balmoral. Sutton is no longer a small thinly spread village straddling the London - Brighton turnpike road. Since Thomas Alcock became the lord of the manor, he has proved to be a shrewd property developer. Sutton's population, having leapfrogged Carshalton in the 1850's, has doubled to 6,600 in the last decade. The town is now served not only by the Croydon - Epsom railway but by new lines to Epsom Downs and Mitcham Junction. The economy is booming and it is a time of great social change. Parliament has committed England to compulsory education. The weekend now starts at Saturday lunchtime, generating an enormous public demand to be amused on Saturday afternoons. Public hangings have only just been stopped, as have deportations of convicts to Australia. William Webb-Ellis is on his last legs. Rugby Football is a game played with 20 a side and without the distraction of having a referee. It is at this point that a few intrepid souls, such as Arthur Jackson, the Burrows brothers and James Spencer introduced the sport to Sutton, forming a Club which used the Cock Hotel as their changing room and played on a ground in Western Road.
