List of Old Norvicensians

Statue of Lord Nelson in the Upper Close

Old Norvicensians (ONs) are former pupils of Norwich School, an independent co-educational day school in Norwich, England. It was established in 1096 as an episcopal school by the first Bishop of Norwich, Herbert de Losinga, and is one of the oldest schools in the United Kingdom. It was later refounded by royal charter in 1547 by Edward VI.

ONs may join the Old Norvicensian Club, an association for former pupils. Predecessors include the Parrian Club, a dining society for former pupils of Samuel Parr's headship in the late 18th century, and the Valpeian Club, after Edward Valpy in the early 19th century. In 1866, the latter was replaced by The Norwich School Club which gave rise to the current association for former pupils, which emerged at the beginning of the 20th century.[1]

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.
