After our AGM on 13th April the Historical Society are starting their new season off with an interactive talk, “Going to School in Elham”, a new concept entirely and one aimed at every generation.
From its earliest days in 1728 in the Old School house, Market Square to the present day, we hope to highlight how our school has evolved, how village life changed through the war years, recount memories of our own school days, and to illustrate all this with a display of photographs and keepsakes, the like of which we all have tucked away somewhere.
The Society will be researching the origins of our 6 village schools (yes – there really has been 6 in total). The current school, naturally, has been invited to join in.
We are inviting anyone with a school connection to look out old school reports, certificates, and photographs, recount a favourite tale, etc., to contact us on elhamhistorical@gmail.com. We ask that any contributions be sent by no later than 1st May in order that our speakers have time to collate material into a cohesive talk. Any cups or trophies, artwork or memorabilia can of course be brought along on the night.
We do hope you will join us to enjoy what promises to be a most enlightening, nostalgic and amusing evening in the main hall at Elham Primary School.
The Committee.
