CALLING ALL PAST STUDENTS!

Do you have any of your old (and not so old) class photos?
 Perhaps you have some of your parent’s photos from their time at St Mary’s?
We are hoping to gather up some of these images to begin our historical archives ahead of our 100th year of teaching!
All photos will be cared for, and only borrowed to scan into the archive, before returning to you.
 
A collection box will be located at the Front desk, and once scanned, you will be contacted to collect photos.
Please remember to label photos clearly to allow photos to be returned. 
If you can remember any names or other details, these will be welcomed.
 
Once scanned, the images will be digitally restored, so even if your photos have suffered damage or have aged, this will be reversed.
Digital copies of your images will be available upon request at no charge. Please include your email, if you wish to receive a digital copy.
