A vist to the school in 2010 did not produce any information as to whether there was ever an honour board for the pupils of the school who volunteered for the First World War. The small centenary history of the school produced in 1981 does not mention a board, nor can any reference be found in the online Argus to indicate that one was installed. It would be very unusual if an honour board was not installed, so perhaps one was removed many years ago. If anyone has any information about such a board, a photograph, or a list of names from the board, please get in touch.
In the meantime I am slowly assembling a list of volunteers from the school who volunteered in the First World War, any additional information is very welcome.
