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!

And this year's cup winners were Monty House! Go Monty! The cheers could be heard throughout the school, probably throughout Hampshire And if you're Spenser or Austen.... it all starts again in September. #WeAreEggars https://t.co/11g4SYM8Hi 10:47 AM - 23 Jul 2021

Some of our talented musicians were able to play to their parents and carers in a Summer Showcase on Monday evening. Here's a mini taster of our band and their amazing musical talent! #WeAreEggars https://t.co/3wIeXrP16D 6:47 AM - 22 Jul 2021
