ORA Heritage Projects

2023 is the 125th anniversary of the school at its current site on the cliffs of Brighton overlooking the sea – an image which resonates with so many. The Old Roedeanians’ Association would like to mark this significant anniversary, supporting and celebrating the heritage of the school, enabling iconic artefacts to be enjoyed by future generations of girls and ORs and to share their fascinating history. The ORA has worked closely with the School to identify and prioritise several artefacts integral to our School’s heritage which are now in need of some TLC.

• Sundial on the Terrace • Friezes in the Drawing Rooms • Fountain in the Cloister Garth • Tiles in the Art Studio • Ensigns in the Chapel

Our Appeal Target is £164,600.
