"Come then boys come rally round her
Let our hearts with hers entwine
Come and laud her to the echo
Alma Mater by the Tyne"
The words of St Cuthbert’s Catholic High School’s song will be familiar to many.
Former teachers Frank Hodges, Ian Lord, and Dave Peffer were welcomed back to St Cuthbert’s in mid-November to begin an archive project which will include an interactive timeline, documented records, and the creation and filming of a docu-drama about how the experience of being a Cuthbertian has changed from 1881 to 2024.
If any old boys of the school, whether students or staff, from any era of the school’s history, have any videos, photographs, or documents you wish to share, please contact Frank Hodges on 0191 2131790 or email Frank at [email protected]
