The Boarder - Second Issue of the School Magazine July 1959

 The Boarder - Second Issue of the School Magazine July 1959

Thanks to Gordon Wood we now have issue 2 of The Boarder from July 1959. For this issue they went professional - typeset and printed on an offset litho machine at a printers. 40 pages with House reports, sports reports, Church news, dramatic society reviews and lots of creative stories or poems and much more.

Four issues were produced between 1957 and 1961. We have 3 of the issues on here and if anyone has a copy of Issue three July 1960, please let us know! These magazines produced by the staff and pupils, give a birdseye view of the school at that time and reflect all areas of school activity from house reports, outings and visits, clubs and societies to sports and even exams. They also reflect some of the changes in those years, staff and pupils starting or leaving, changes in the school and school news. Brilliant historic documents for the school. Links to the other issues are below.
