On Friday 19 July 2024 Mr Joc Wrensch one of the Deputy Heads, unveiled the new Bishops 25 Year History.
This was at a special occasion of the opening of the new Ubuntu Learning Centre.
Staff and invited guests were present at the launch.
Joc writes as follows:
As part of our 175th celebrations we commissioned the writing of a “History of Bishops, the past 25 years”. You may know that in 1999, at the 150th anniversary, a full school history was published in book format of the preceding 150 years. Our current project has been to add the next 25 years to that. For this project we have launched a website, rather than a book. The current History was written by retired Bishops Senior Vice Principal, Michael King, who was at Bishops for 25 years. He has been researching and developing this project for the best part of a year, and we are very proud to introduce his 175 Online History: https://history.bishops.org.za/
This history is told as a narrative through “chapters” outlined by each of the Principals during this period. There are also specific articles delving deeply into particular areas of Bishops, from sport to culture, spirituality to technology. In addition, there are also the usual lists, which indicate all the important categories at Bishops, from staff to Head Boys and more.
We hope you enjoy this retrospective of the past 25 years and encourage you to read this new and valuable update on our school.
