Stephen Perse Cambridge Celebrates 144 Years with Hyacinth Tradition
Published on 17/01/25
Every year since 1967, a special birthday hyacinth has been presented to mark our school's birthday.
Retired Head of Junior School Katie Milne continued this beautiful tradition, presenting a hyacinth on behalf of former Deputy Head of Senior School, Rosemary Tice, to our Principal, Richard Girvan, in celebration of our 144th birthday!
Adding a new layer to this tradition, Ms Milne has now started one of her own—presenting a Junior School birthday hyacinth. A lucky Year 3 class had the chance to meet her, hear about the tradition and receive the dedicated birthday bloom.
