St Mary's Flower Festival
"Memories"
|
|
|
There is a flower festival on “Memories” in St Mary’s, Thame this year flower arrangements will be on the theme of Word War 1. This is from Friday 16th May to Sunday 18th May, culminating in a ‘Songs of Praise’ with hymns mainly from Charles Wesley.
We usually provide an arrangement in memory of the fallen students, in the old LWS colours.

OTA Flickr Site
Do we have the biggest on-line archive?
|
|
|
The OTA archive is certainly one of the biggest for a private body. Certainly the biggest for a school in the UK.
We now have over 4000 images online that cover, the School, the OTA and, since acquiring Norman Lilley's own archive, an expanded section on Thame.
And as we've grown, so have the number of visitors. The biggest number of views on a single day thus far is over 33,000.
The subject matter is diverse as you might expect: the earliest image is from the 14th century - a petition written to the King. We have plans to upload Lord Williams's will. (It's not a straightforward task.) And then we have images of people, events, artefacts, letters, albums, educational material, anything and everything that might be of interest. (And our stats show that indeed the diversity of what is looked at is much more than one might expect.)
