Book Launch

We are delighted to be launching the School's fantastic history book, To 450 & Beyond, on Thursday 20th November. We invite you to join us as the book is bought to life through the lens, music and voices of past and present. The evening will take place in the Baughan Theatre and foyer from 4.50pm. There will be three showings of the launch film at 5.15pm, 6.15pm and 7.15pm, lasting around 20 minutes, with the opportunity to meet the authors, catch up with members of the SVS community and browse and purchase the book.

We have timed this event to coincide with the end of the school day, so parents and their wider families can visit, either alone or with their children (who must be accompanied thoughout). We would recommend that Old Suttonians and members of the wider SVS community visit during the second half of the evening, when the Quad will be quieter for parking. However, if this is not convenient, please do feel free to arrive from 4.50pm

Refreshments, drinks and canapés will be served throughout and there will be an opportunity to collect pre-ordered copies of the book or purchase copies on the night, in time for Christmas. Whilst this event is complimentary, if you are planning on attending please could you register your interest, which will help us with catering.
