On Thursday evening, Cate Bell (Chair of CFT, Governor, Parent and Alum) and her husband Ed kindly hosted another regional 150th Anniversary Drinks Party in their beautiful gardens in Hampshire. Current and past parents were joined by alum and friends of St Mary's to enjoy a late summer evening with drinks & canapes and listen to Jemima (MIV) and Katie (UVI) who both sang beautifully accompanied by Mrs Bethan Fryar.

Acting Head, Michael Smyth spoke, alongside Cate, on the continuing 150th celebrations as well as the exams successes of current pupils and the start of another busy term at St Mary's.  Cate encourage guests to consider supporting the 150 Society and the Chrysalis Campaign as well as attending the very special Service of Celebration and Thanksgiving at Salisbury Cathedral on Wednesday 11th October.  For more information on this and all the remaining events planned, please click here.
