More about this scene
The newly completed school welcomed its first 180 female pupils on 3 May 1938 and was formally opened seven weeks later by the then President of the Board of Education, Earl Stanhope. Under the leadership of its indefatigable headmistress Miss Marion McConnell Dickie MA, the pupils and the nine members of the teaching staff were, within sixteen months, called upon to cope with a variety of unforeseen problems with the start of the Second World War. Miss Dickie retired in 1964, and died in August 1985.
