SOME MEMORIES OF WATFORD GIRLS GRAMMAR SCHOOL - 1965

I have been meaning to try to make contact with old school friends since turning 60 a couple of years ago. My name is Pauline Taylor (nee McCarthy) and would love to organise a reunion with them-names that spring to mind are Liz Kiddle , Linda Haydon, Harriet Seal.........I still maintain contact with Liz Clark and did with Eileen Carter until she sadly died several years ago. I bumped in to Elaine Mitchell a few years ago and it was good to talk about old school times. Please get in touch if you remember me pauline@ukyouth.org - perhapsyou were at our last supper in the Chinese in King Street when we left in ’65 with our lives ahead of us-would be great to discover what we actually did with them!

Lady’s Close House

Having looked carefully at the capital development needs of the school and the level of funding currently available to us, we now intend to focus our energy on restoring Lady's Close House.

This is the most historic building on the school site and is central to every girl's development at WGGS. Lady's Close is the Y7 base, where pupils have their own space and Form Rooms. The girls have special affection for the building because it represents the start of their careers at WGGS. The grand old house is also the home of the English Department.

The building is well over 100 years old and is in dire need of modernisation and refurbishment. We have ambitious plans to recapture the splendour and elegance of its history, while incorporating the technology and physical improvements that will bring Lady's Close House into the 21st century in appropriate WGGS style.
