Siân, Head Girl from 2017-18, joined the RAF in 2021.

Aircraft Specialist One Technician Grice, who is stationed at RAF Marham, Norfolk, spent the previous week rehearsing in Whitehall during the night and early hours, alongside other members of our armed forces, to provide the guard posted at the Cenotaph during the King's wreath-laying ceremony and veteran march past on Sunday 12 November.

Siân was immensely proud and honoured to represent the Royal Air Force and give thanks to those who had already served their country, especially to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. 

A staunch supporter of the School, Siân returned in 2022 to speak at the event celebrating the 50th anniversary of Oswestry School's coeducation.
