Help mark Frodsham High School's glory days
The final countdown to the closure of Frodsham High School has begun.
But when they break up for the last time in July, the remaining 240 pupils and 22 teachers say they will "finish with a flourish!"
This is the last annual motto created for the school by Acting Head, Anna Cooper, whose inspiring leadership over the past four years, despite the turmoil of uncertainty, has led to Frodsham High collecting a string of significant national and regional awards and accolades.
However, Mrs Cooper and her dedicated staff are determined their school will end on a high - and they are busy planning a programme of special events to celebrate its proud history and achievements.
Frodsham High, which is a designated Science and Technology College, began life as Frodsham Secondary School in April 1941.
Head of history, Tony Young, is organising a School Museum display in April and he is keen to hear from former staff and pupils who may have old photographs or memorabilia, such as an original school tie or beret, they would like to share. Were you a member of the school's popular Folk dance team and still have your tunic?
Head of PE, Martin Smiddy - one of the school's longest-serving teachers - is also organising a re-run of the original, often dreaded, A-Course exercise run - for those former pupils who feel they are still fit enough to tackle it!
There will be an open day for former pupils to re-visit the school on July 1 and 2 and another for former staff on July 3.
There will be a warm welcome for everyone who wishes to take part, but organisers are asking people to contact the school for entry tickets, as an aid to catering.
For further details and tickets, contact Mrs Pam Moore on 01928 731665.

I never thought that the passing of a building would ever efect me. However I gues thats the point, it was allways more than a building. I can only say that I am gutted to have found this site after the event and would have loved to come down and say my goodbys to the old place. If anyone ever does a class of 91 reunion dont hesatate to get in touch.
