2 A Message from the Headmaster and Headmistress As we approach the 100th anniversary of our Foundation, we have commissioned a commemorative publication to mark this auspicious date. This special book will reflect the spirit and ethos of the School, combining memories from Old Boys and Old Girls with archive materials and photographs of School today to illustrate our rich history. We would urge you to contribute your own stories and recollections to ensure that the book is a true record of School life, past and present. About the Book The Best of Both Worlds will tell for the first time the interwoven story of two Schools which share a common vision and heritage, and a single remarkable site. Beautifully illustrated, with both newly commissioned and archive photography, the book will chart the evolution of the Bolton School Foundation since its endowment by Lord Leverhulme in 1915 and show how it remains true to his founding ethos of opportunity for all regardless of means, background or gender. We hope that you will also consider becoming a subscriber and have your name recorded in the publication. This book will become a permanent record of the last one hundred years of our School, and we would be delighted if you would like to become part of it. Philip Britton Headmaster Sue Hincks Headmistress Featuring personal accounts by teachers and Alumni of both Divisions, the book will explore daily life at the School, its grounding in the local community, and adventures at Cautley, Patterdale and beyond. Rediscover the individuals, events and architecture that have helped shape the School and its spirit and a unique place which truly reflects the best of both worlds.
