The School Archives
Visitors to the archive this year have undertaken research on Frank Pick for a forthcoming biography and St Peter’s relationship with Elmfield College.
Please remember the archives if you are planning to part with any school related photographs or artefacts. There are many gaps to fill and everything helps!
Other visitors, as part of their academic studies, have been researching the St Peter’s connection with the early Australian rugby rules, in addition to many family queries about Old Peterites.
Mrs P Chandler
Work has begun on a website alongside the Marketing Department to mark the part that Old Peterites played in the First World War. John Armstrong has kindly shared his research and we are working to add to the information about individuals and link to further sources of information. Digitisation continues with the oldest whole school photographs and some issues of The Peterite which we hope will be available in due course on the archives website. Donations have been gratefully received from: Mrs Gill Vivian - 2 whole school photographs (1951 and 1965). Mr Richard Hill – a metal plate with links to St Peter’s. Rev. Jeremy Howat – Programme for a York Minster concert involving St Peter’s Schooland Queen Margaret’s School. Once again I would like to thank Angela Sanderson for the time she has spent over the year helping in the archives and for her great enthusiasm.
