Eggar's School song! Do you remember it?
For Eggar's makes the valley ring
From Farringdon to Froyle,
For green and gold,
Our watchword bold
To Eggar's, Eggar's,
Ever loyal.
We recently had a wonderful email from Anita Pheby, one of our former students who came to our first Alumni evening last month. She said the school song was taken very seriously by previous generations of students, especially before the Second World War.
It was introduced by Charles W Wheatley who was Head Teacher from 1929 until he retired some 30 years later.
- Do you have any memories of singing our old school song?
- What was the tune like?
Do let us know!
