 70th Anniversary of the Evacuation 

 

 

A splendid Dinner and exhibition of memorabilia took place in the Fyvie Hall at 309 Regent Street (now the University of Westminster H.Q.) on Tuesday 1st September 2009, to mark the exact 70th Anniversary of the Evacuation of the School.

Over 30 octogenarian evacuees who were pupils at the School while it was evacuated to Minehead, as well as family members, attended.  Ralph Worsnop, son of Headmaster Dr. B.L. Worsnop, was among those who travelled from the U.S.A and Canada for the occasion.

The Guest of Honour was Professor Rikki Morgan-Tamosunas, Deputy Vice-Chancellor of the University of Westminster.  The University Archivist, Elaine Penn, was also present.
