Arts Festival

Further details on all GDST events are available on their website: www.gdst.net/2209/alumnae/alumnae-events

Saturday 6 July, 12.00noon - 5.00pm Following on from the success of our Creative Showcase in 2011 we are planning an exciting day to celebrate the Arts. The festival will be an occasion for all the family to enjoy. It will include an Art and Design exhibition, musical performances, dance, a literary area with readings from well-known authors, an arts and craft marquee plus an array of musical talent. We are particularly keen to hear from alumnae who would be interested in performing at the event. If you would like to be involved, in any way, please contact Laura McAdam in the Development Team. Party in a Party

Saturday 9 November, 12.00noon - 5.00pm Join us for a ‘party in a party’ and reconnect with old school friends and former staff. Whether you come alone or bring a party of friends, you will find a warm welcome at NGHS. There will be live music, tours of the school, an archive exhibition and a chance to hear about our exciting plans for the future. NGHS REUNION ACROSS THE DECADES

Exclusive shopping evening at Hobbs, Covent Garden

Thursday 27 June, 6.30pm, £5.00 We will have our own private shopping area and personal stylist but also free rein to explore the entire store. There will be 20% discount off full-price items, a goodie-bag with purchases and the chance to win £100 Hobbs vouchers. Guided tour of Newstead Abbey, with light lunch

Thursday 18 July, 11.30am, £15.00 Founded as a monastic house in the 12th century, but most famous as home to the poet Byron. We will have a private guided tour, followed by lunch in the Abbey’s café. Guided tour of Little Moreton Hall

Thursday 15 August, 11.30am, £7.00 Little Moreton Hall is the iconic black and white Tudor House. Dating back to 1504, it was built by the Moreton family as an ostentatious show of wealth, and its richness and beauty is still evident today, even if engineers examining in the 1990s couldn’t understand how it was still standing! Hear about the house’s many inhabitants and original features in our guided tour. Be Inspired! Work the room, London

Thursday 3 October, 6.30pm, £7.00 Is networking one of your least favourite things, and do you find it hard to know what to say? Networking isn’t for everyone, but we all do it socially and professionally. This small, intimate event will create a friendly and easy environment to go back to networking basics, from finding what you’re comfortable talking about, through to how to exit less enjoyable conversations! To help make it all a little less daunting, the group size will be small and there will be delicious canapés and drinks.
