Former Students take a trip down Memory Lane

Headteacher, Caroline, and Deputy Head, Amelia, had the privilege of touring two former pupils from when the school was known as 'Glengorse & Hydneye Prep School', around the school recently.

Amelia had been researching the old school as part of a Scheme of Work that she was writing for English. Coming across a number of communities around the old school, Amelia reached out to former pupils, some of whom responded expressing their happiness about the Glengorse site becoming a school once again. One of these pupils asked whether it would be possible to tour the school and of course, Caroline and Amelia agreed.

Although not all, some former pupils have very fond memories of their time at the school and Caroline and Amelia were delighted to have the opportunity to hear about what the school used to look like, where the old classrooms and dorms were, and learn about some of the exploits that the children got up to!

ISP School, Battle is a very different school to Glengorse & Hydneye Prep School, but the calmness and serenity of the grounds remains the same as do some of the main features, such as the large painting on the stairs. Echoes of those old school days remain in the shape of places such as the old swimming pool (now a diverse environment for wildlife).
