1st January 2021

In the Heritage Room we came across a folder of photographic slides showing all aspects of “Wycol Life” – classroom; sports; general views; 6th form socials. They were taken by a professional photographer, Graham Hiles, and were for a future prospectus. We think it was 1986 although are happy to be corrected. If you were a pupil in 1986 you might appear so have a look and if you can provide any names or dates we would love to hear from you. They are on four separate pages and links are also at the bottom of the Gallery page. Hiles1  Hiles2  Hiles3  Hiles4
