St Swithun's former Junior School Headmistress, Miss Harris, will be celebrating her 100th birthday on Thursday 26 August 2021.
Many Old Girls have very fond memories of Miss Harris, and of her dog - Boffin.
If you would like to leave a comment on this Community Hub news article (or on the Old Girls' Facebook page), we will happily pass these onto the staff at her nursing home, so that they can be read to her.
Alternatively if you would like to send her a card, please post to Miss Harris, c/o The Old Girls' Association, St Swithun's School, Alresford Rd, Winchester SO21 1HA, and we will forward.
We have no photographs of Miss Harris, or of Boffin, in our archives, so would be very interested to hear if any Old Girls have any photographs please?
With best wishes from
The Old Girls' Association
