OC News

The Charterhouse community is a vibrant and essential aspect of the School's identity, fostering connections between parents, pupils and staff throughout the academic year. Last week's Under School Parent Reception at the Lansdown Club in Mayfair exemplified this commitment to building strong relationships within the Charterhouse family.

Charterhouse Connect, our vibrant community portal, has reached an exciting milestone: over 4,000 Old Carthusians (OCs) and parents are now actively engaged on the platform.

Six in ten adults don't have an up-to-date will, and it's something that we know can feel overwhelming and costly. But it doesn’t have to be. To honour Free Wills Month, Charterhouse has partnered with Octopus Legacy to offer a free will-writing service to our Old Carthusian community.

We are delighted to announce the launch of a new mentoring programme for Old Carthusians based in Hong Kong.
