King Offa School celebrated
it's centenary on March 7th 2007. The children dressed in Edwardian costume for the day; we held a
special celebration assembly with invited guests who then toured the school and
our Centenary displays. In the afternoon a "tea party" was held for the
children, with a table running the entire length of both halls, plus tables on
either side of the halls. We had a birthday cake with 100 candles on and after
tea we released 100 balloons kindly supplied by the Bexhill Observer.
On Saturday 10th March we held an "Open Day" at the school for ex-pupils and
other interested visitors. The day was a great
success, our exhibition of old photos, Log Books
and Admission Registers proved very popular, ex-pupils were able to share their
memories with us and several re-unions were made.
We
are still looking for old photographs and memories of the school, if you have any that
you can share with us please contact the school on 01424 211548 or by e-mail king(at)kingoffa(dot)e-sussex(dot)sch(dot)uk
