89 - TV Star Comedian Harry Hill returns to Staplehurst School!!

Harry Hill, one of our more famous ex-pupils, visited our school on Monday 9th June 2008 to help publicise the campaign to get our school field back. The field has been out of action for nearly two years now and whilst we remain hopeful that it will be resolved soon, it was fantastic to have Harry visit us.

Our thanks to both the BBC local news team and Meridian news who covered this event as well as the ever supportive Kent Messenger newspaper and radio stations, Radio Kent and KMFM.

Surrounded by pupils, Harry was very at ease with everyone and we would love to take him up on his offer to open our Sports Day, when it returns!

When Harry met Harry!!!!

Searching through an old school photograph, Harry found his brother and one of his sisters with the help of a parent, and ex-pupil herself, Heidi Lindsell. Sadly, the whole school photographs, now a tradition, started after Harry had left Staplehurst school so we were unable to find a photograph of him as a young boy.

 

Our thanks to Harry and hope that he'll revisit soon!
