An Unexpected Treasure -
Tales from the oldest senior school in Sutton Thursday 26 September 19:30 A Friends of Honeywood Museum Event Sutton High School was founded in 1884 by the Girls’ Day School Company, whose purpose was to provide a ‘public school’, liberal education for middle-class girls. The school is fortunate enough to possess a substantial archive which includes magazines, log-books, various artefacts and a wealth of photographs. The archive reveals the school to be a microcosm of national events such as the two World Wars and the development of women’s rights. It gives us a unique, sometimes poignant and occasionally humorous insight into Sutton’s past as will be revealed by Sue James. Tickets are £5 (£4 Friends) - FREE tea and coffee from 19:00 Please phone 020 8642 4778 to book or simply print and return the booking form. |
