THE bell is ringing and it's time to line up for another slice of school nostalgia.

As promised, we're returning to Colchester Royal Grammar School for the second of three spreads featuring archive pictures from the 1990s.

Today's selection features quizmasters, Oxbridge candidates, a reunion of old boys and former headmaster Stewart Francis.

Old Boys - December 1991

Reliving the past - this reunion of Grammar School ‘old boys’ took place in December 1991

Hopefully they bring back fond memories for some of our readers.

If so, make sure you look out for the third spread in the coming weeks.

The Grammar School has been part of Colchester life for more than 450 years.

It is one of the best in the country for exam success and well-known in town for its iconic purple blazers.

We're always keen to feature more school nostalgia and love seeing your old pictures.
