version written by Shaw Jeffrey who adapted its lyrics for his new school when he became headmaster for the Colchester Royal Grammar School. Old Skinners' Society Founded in 1890 by the Old Boys of the time, the Old Skinners' Society has four main aims: To promote, preserve and strengthen the ties of sentiment which exist between Old Boys and the School and to encourage the closest liaison between the Society and the School. To provide opportunities for Old Boys to keep in touch with their former school friends and with the School. To encourage the formation and activities of branches of the Society. To provide and promote financial and/or material assistance to the School. On leaving the school the majority of leavers sign up to the society for life, making them eligible to attend the many social events the society organizes.
