What a treat to share stories from @SedberghSchool 's 500 year history with visiting pupils from Sedbergh School Vietnam and Sedbergh School Fuzhou. The pupils are gathering anecdotes to make a video about the ethos of all three Sedbergh Schools, and sharing stories of their own.

It was wonderful to welcome such enthusiastic @SedberghEA pupils to the archive this morning. The boys are undertaking private research projects on aspects of @SedberghSchool history. I look forward to seeing their presentations later this term.
Today, EAL pupils Fabio and Jan visited @SedberghArchive - they were full of questions for our school archivist!

Another Y12 IELTS class visit to the fascinating @SedberghArchive Alex, Konstantin and Lukas @Sed_Sedgwick had the opportunity to view a Nasal Atomizer that was used in Sedgwick House in the 1920s. The rugby ball that has been to space was also a favourite!
