TIME TO CELEBRATE - Sunday 20th June 2010
The Westonbirt Association was establsihed two years after the school (once it had some leaving pupils to recruit) and this year the Association will celebrate its 80th Anniversary (not to be confused with the 80th Anniversary of the School whihc took place in 2008). The Executive Committee of the Association have arranged a Garden Party as a way of celebrating this milestone and all members of the Association are invited to attend. Those members who remain in contact with their Section should have received an invitation, but if you have not received yours you can download one by clicking here . If you would like to contact the Honorary Secretary of the Association, Mrs Ali Warington Smyth, click here.
The Garden party will take place on Sunday 20th June in the school grounds. The day will include picnic lunches, tours of the school and gardens, a tree planting ceremony and finish off with a 'scratch choir' performance from a group of former pupils themselves, in memory of Miss Mildred Naylor, former Director of Music who died in 2008.
Section 30, led by Jane Reid (Bottomely), is hoping to celebrate 50 years of leaving school and those who left in 1960 (or contemporaries who left earlier) are encouraged to attend the Garden Party or Reunion Day. If you wish to join Section 30 in their celebrations email the school for the attention of Jane Reid, Westonbirt Assocation, by clicking here.
