HUNDREDS of former pupils at a Worcester-shire school are meeting up again after finding each other on the internet.

The pupils, from Chantry High School, in Martley, near Worcester, got in touch with one another through Friends Reunited which aims to link up former pupils across the country.

Pupils, some of whom have not seen each other for more than 20 years, plan to meet up at a ball being held at the school this summer to mark the school's 40th anniversary and is due to take place on Saturday, June 21.

Stella Oakey, who is helping to organise the event, said: "Those of us who have joined Friends Reunited have agreed to meet up at the ball," said Mrs Oakey, aged 44, who left the school in 1976.

"Literally hundreds of Chantry High School Pupils have joined Friends Reunited and obviously they can't all make it to the ball."
