Over 36 hours on 18 - 19 June, our Schools community will come together in the name of supporting families to increase access to a transformational education. Our students are preparing to take part in aquathons, complete fun runs in fancy dress, sing as loudly as possible and have some fun in an alternative sports day, along with other fun activities!

Today’s takes, as its theme, the fact that National Best Friends Day is celebrated on June 8th. National Best Friends Day was established in 1935 by the U.S. Congress to celebrate close friendships, and these friendships are most likely to have been generated at school.

organises regular reunions of class-mates, and the teachers who taught them. This Saturday, 6th June, we’re looking forward to welcoming back over 200 Old Warwickians for their anniversary reunions - a great opportunity for friendships old and new.

The attached image is of friends from 1971.

Today’s item features an advertisement for the school, published in 1880. It’s a very important document, containing a great deal of information not available elsewhere. But there are some details, and, indeed, errors in it, which my readership might like to tackle. A certain book, – a History, might be helpful…

1. What did Rev W. F. MacMichael transport in 1879? From where?
2. Where was the Middle School? What happened to it?
3. What effect might the much higher fees charged at the new Grammar School over the Middle School have had on numbers?
4. Why didn’t Miss Fisher have a degree?
5. What’s wrong with the date of 1546 so proudly displayed?
6. Governor G. H. Nelson – why did his company produce terrible smells in Warwick?
7. Governor Archdeacon James Baly was taught at the school from 1832 to 1838, learning just Latin and Greek. Who was the headmaster at the time, and how long did he serve?

For today's , I offer a little quiz.
1. What was this room called in 1879?
2. What was the function of this room from the early 1970s to 2000?
3. What is it used for now?
