FOGA: News of Old Girls (Part 1)

If anyone has any news items of interest to the Old Girls and your former school friends, (e.g. Engagements, Marriages, Births or Deaths, or Personal Achievements), we would love to hear from you to update our records and also to acknowledge these events.

Fairholme Family Tree

We are endeavouring to obtain a comprehensive history of families who have attended Fairholme over the years, to have on record a "Fairholme Family Tree". The aim is to obtain as complete a history as possible of all that have and are attending Fairholme, as this history is an integral part of the College and important to preserve.

If you have information in this regard would you good enough to complete the "form" and forward it back to us. You can also submit your Family Tree information online
