old Harris Academy
« on: Wednesday 04 June 25 08:55 BST (UK) »
Hi ,
 Just wondering , as i heard  that a relative went to the Harris  when it was in Park Place , this was about 1910 -1916 (ish)....also it was a fee paying school at that time ??...is there school records available to see if it's true she went there ??
thanks

Plenty of items in the papers re the place. Many refer to concerts where pupils are named. The chances of the subject of your search being mentioned may be slim - but you never know!
