Aaron was a pupil at Princethorpe from 1997 to 2002. He has remained a close friend of the College, supporting many OP events, and we are delighted and humbled that he has offered to create a unique event especially for his fellow Old Princethorpians.

Royal Museums Greenwich (RMG) is a family of four museums in South London, covering a huge range of subjects across its four sites. Its 2.5+ million items include everything from Titanic relics to Tongan clubs!

Aaron has worked at RMG for over ten years and will be selecting some weird and wonderful things especially for us! On this tour, you will see some of the Museum’s most famous objects, including Nelson’s Battle of Trafalgar coat with a bullet hole in the shoulder, but also many hidden gems! 

Format of the day:

Arrivals:

We ask that guests make their own travel arrangements and meet Aaron and the tour group at the entrance of the National Maritime Museum at 11.15am, so that we can begin the tour promptly at 11.30am.

The tour will last approximately 70 minutes, followed by a chance to explore the nearby majestic tea clipper, Cutty Sark.

Afterwards, you are warmly invited to join Aaron and the Alumni and Development team in a nearby pub for an informal catch up and a bite to eat.

Travel and Costs:

The tour and Aaron’s time are offered free of charge.

You can find detailed information about getting to Royal Museums Greenwich on their website: Getting to Royal Museums Greenwich
