The School Scrap Book

In this section of the website you will find material taken from the school archives and from other sources.  A separate section has the scrapbook material from the 1974 to 2004.

The items in the index below are arranged in approximate date order.  Since many of the entries in the school scrapbook are undated their publication date is sometimes an estimate.  To view entries in the scrap book either select the items you want to view from the index below by clicking on the arrow, or start from the first item, and simply click on [next] at the bottom of each page.  The number of pages in our scrapbook will continue to grow.  

The newest items are shown in red.

On the scrap book pages, the abbreviation C&E means that it was published in the Northampton Chronicle and Echo.  Some of the items in the scrap book have dark smudges on them.  This is where the glue that holds the original into the school scrap book is showing through the aging paper.
