Bishops College

This weekend Bishops College will be holding celebrations of its 50th. year. Bishops opened in 1959 with C.J. Grant as principal and Mrs. A. Wareham (still living) as Vice-principal. Bishops was a major departure for us at Feild as we had no girls for most of our schooling. This was the Anglican Board's first foray into a co-educational high school. It worked well as many fine students came from within the walls of the rectangular box on Pennywell Road.

From the old boys of Feild we wish Bishops a very happy 50th. birthday and hope that there will be many more years to come.
