        06 Arthur Lok and Tom Day,   milestone reunions marking 5, 10, 20, 30 and 50
        co-founders of the production
        company We Go Again  years since leaving Millfield. The much-loved
                            Nissen Club lunches took place in both London
                            and Somerset, where OMs aged over 60 enjoyed
                            warm hospitality and the chance to reflect on fond
                            memories.

                            In London, the Financial Industry Drinks event
                            brought together alumni at various stages in their
                            careers and notably led to a young OM securing a
                            job opportunity through a connection made on the
                            night. The annual Christmas Drinks drew our largest   02
                            crowd to date, with over 100 OMs coming together
                            to celebrate the festive season. Internationally, the
                            Millfield spirit remained strong with reunions held
                            in Geneva, Monaco, Dubai, and Perth, with each
                            event uniting alumni across generations.

                            Sport played a central role in this year’s OM
                            calendar. In November, Millfield hosted the return
                            of the OM Rugby Lunch and Game. April saw the
                            launch of the first OM Football Day, featuring a
                            lively and competitive match in which the OMs
                            triumphed over a Millfield staff team, followed by
                            a celebratory dinner. Later that month, the annual
                            Kennedy Cup brought OMs together for a touching
                            tribute to the life of Cian Kennedy, with a rugby
                            match and evening gathering in his honour.
