On Saturday, October 25th, Mr. Irvin Hinchcliffe visited the School to give us an opportunity of hearing a recital upon the harpsichord, an instrument all too rare nowadays. The harpsichord on which Mr. Hinchcliffe played so well was the only one which he saved from his collection, the others all being destroyed by bombing.
In November we received another welcome visit from Mr. Ernest Sewell.
On Advent Sunday the School paid its usual annual visit to the Minster for Evensong.
Towards the end of the term the School heard a lecture, illustrated by sound films, on the Fleet Air Arm, which was greatly enjoyed by everyone.
Congratulations to P. A. Lockwood on being appointed Head of School, and to F. H. Hillyard, G. R. Morris and R. R. L. Pryer on being made School Monitors.
