2011 marks the 300th anniversary of the signing of the lease on the school's first buildings in London (although we now believe that the school was actually founded a little earlier) and provides an excellent focal point for us to celebrate the school's achievements, past and present.

We are marking our tercentenary with a series of exciting events which involve the whole school community.

Highlights include:

• A Service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul's Cathedral, with a sermon preached by the Lord Bishop of London
• The launch of the school history, a book entitled ‘Grace and Integrity: a portrait of The Lady Eleanor Holles School'.  To find out more visit www.lehsbook.co.uk.
• A concert at St. John's, Smith Square, London
• A public art display at The Landmark Centre, Teddington
• A series of anniversary lectures, capturing aspects of life and culture in the early 18th century
• A whole-school photograph, balloon launch and anniversary cake
• The Friends' Anniversary Ball
• Anniversary Week celebrations, including Bring Your Parents to School and a concert with fireworks
• Current pupils and parents v Alumnae sports festival
• Alumnae Service of Commemoration at St Giles' Cripplegate with luncheon in the Barbican
• Special Alumnae Annual Lunch
• A pictorial record of the anniversary year

Further details will be included in a souvenir brochure to be published later this academic year.
