Past pupil stories

I've been working on a web based map project to show the stories of the relatives of King's Ely parents and pupils in the Great War. There are many to find, and we have so far collected 50 of them.
I was pleased to be able to show parents attending the special concert that was held to coincide with remembrance.

Vivian Sharp was one of the past pupils who survived the War. When he returned, he paid for some stained glass windows, which can be seen as one enters the South door of Ely Cathedral (which we do most weeks for the school assembly and services). He also, I was interested to read, a school master when he returned, and later became a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, and a kindred spirit across the generations. I have had quite a few contacts from this project, which has spanned history and geography, and also involved the wide school community.
