The Old Almondburians' Society

Heritage Day 2024

The School will again be open to the public on Saturday, 14th September, as our contribution to this year’s national Heritage Weekend event.

The theme of Heritage Open Days this year is Routes: Networks and Connections - particularly appropriate at the present time when the Society is striving tostrengthen even further its working links with the School community.

Once again members of the Society will join with Abbi Terry and her team of senior students to lead visitors on conducted tours around the School between 10.00 am and 2.00 pm on Saturday, 14th September. Everyone is welcome and for those with disabilities parking is available near the main Old Kitchen entrance.

This year we are hoping to have more of the School open so visitors can enjoy a look round not only the Georgian and Victorian parts of School but the more recent extensions. The ‘Dorms’ will once again be open but those finding it difficult climbing stairs can. of course, miss out this part of the tour. We are again planning to have our historic Charter on display.

If you have not had a look round the old school for a few years please take this opportunity. You will be surprised both with the additions as well as the remodelling that has taken place. I’m sure a visit would bring back many happy and perhaps not so happy memories of the School!
