| OP updates |
The school has been visited by many well-known politicians, authors, scientists, actors, top sports people and members of the royal family over the years. But according to an official school visitors’ book that recently came to light, Jesus Christ visited the school on the 11th April 1969. Sadly his coming was not recorded in the Portmuthian, so the reason for his visit is not known. The same book also records the visit of one Dame Cecilia Mole-Strangler on the 15th March 1971. If any former pupil can shed any light on these notable visitors, the archivist would be very interested to hear from them.
