We Did Our Homework on the Bus – A Social History of St Mary’s College and St Mary’s Grammar will be launched on Saturday 1 October.

Thanks to the kindness of Camilla Crampton, the launch will be held at Christ The King, St Mary’s, Sidcup, where Camilla is Principal. The College now occupies the site of St Mary’s Grammar and latterly St Mary and St Joseph’s School.

The launch will be in the afternoon with exact timings to be communicated as soon as possible. At the launch, copies of the book will be available to buy and it it is hoped there will be a tour of the building for those interested, an exhibition of St Mary’s material and one or two other surprises including a specially-themed cake. Several teachers are expected to make an appearance.

Interest from old boys has been extremely encouraging and it will undoubtedly be the biggest gathering of St Mary’s alumni since the closure of the school. The next step will be to establish exact numbers. Look out for emails and updates to this website and Facebook.
