The Downian Society

The Downian Society welcomes anyone who has attended The Downs Colwall, Hillstone, or Malvern College Prep. Additionally, staff members from these schools are offered honorary membership upon their departure.

The current Headmaster, staff, pupils, Governors, and parents are keen to build on much of the history that the three founding schools and their communities have established, whilst continuing to innovate and improve. At present, the society currently has over 1000 members.

Join us for an unforgettable Old Downians’ Reunion

2025 marks a remarkable milestone – 125 years of The Downs! We are delighted to invite all former pupils, staff, and parents to return and relive fond memories on Saturday 24th May.

Reconnect with old friends, share your stories, and take a special trip down Memory Lane as we celebrate our rich history and bright future.

Please click here to secure your place, and feel free to share this invitation with fellow Old Downians – we’d love to welcome as many familiar faces as possible!

If you are unable to attend the reunion, the school always provides a warm welcome to former pupils. To arrange a private visit, please contact 01684 544100 or email information@thedownsmalvern.org.uk.

Queries about The Downs Malvern can be addressed to the Headmaster by emailing andrew.nuttall@thedownsmalvern.org.uk.

The school also encourages applications for members’ children to join the school. In addition to providing a discounted fee rate for children of past pupils, there may be some limited additional bursary funding available for pupils who would otherwise not be able to attend the school.

The society also has an email address which is checked periodically downiansociety@thedownsmalvern.org.uk, and contact by post should be addressed to:
