Earlier this year, a fundraising campaign at St Giles' School came to a very successful conclusion. The staff and pupils are now enjoying the essential significant extra space and facilities. In addition to the money raised, however, the campaign also succeeded in putting many smiles on faces along the way.
Alaisdair started at St Giles' in January 1946 dressed in short-trousers, aged four-and-a-half. His was the first year to return to St Giles' following the conclusion of WW2. He fondly remembers the gas lighting and his reception class teacher, Ms Aspinall. Alaisdair also recognised a few faces from the past, including a few of who still live in Ashtead today.
