Harrogate school invites ex-pupils to 50-year landmark carol service
One of the Harrogate district’s oldest primary schools is celebrating 50 years on its current site with a special carol service.
Richard Taylor School was founded as Bilton Endowed School by Richard and Francis Taylor in 1785 and moved to its present location on Bilton Lane in 1973, changing its name in the process.
To mark that event, the Church of England school will be holding a number of events, starting with a carol service at St John’s Church in Bilton on December 11.
Andrew Symonds, headteacher of Richard Taylor School, told the Stray Ferret:
He said there were also plans to hold a musical concert in the spring term of 2024, as well as photographic exhibition that will include images lent by ex-pupils. He said:
Richard Taylor School’s 50th anniversary carol service will be held at St John’s Church at 6.30pm on Monday, December 11.
