New Street Exhibition

This December will mark 75 years since King Edward's left the Sir Charles Barry Building on New Street. To celebrate the occasion the school will be screening a specially made film in the chapel, which was originally the upper corridor of the Barry Building, during January. The film will feature a unique tour of the building using some archive 3D images that were recently discovered. There will also be a small exhibition of archive material relating to the building.

We would like to interview Old Edwardians who were taught in the Barry building for the film so we can include their memories of the different rooms in the building. If you are happy to be interviewed for this, please get in touch with Sue (details below).

Alison Wheatley, the school archivist, is also interested in any archive material which old boys who were taught in the Barry building might have. If you have some material and would be happy to have it considered for inclusion in the exhibition, please get in touch with Alison via ‘Schools of King Edward the Sixth, Foundation Office, Edgbaston Park Road, Birmingham, B15 2UD', awheatley@kingedwardvi.bham.sch.uk or 0121 472 1147.

Booking: The dates of the exhibition are to be confirmed. Booking details will follow shortly.
