“Our search for Kerr Scholars has proved fruitful, with alumni from as far back as the 1940s and as far afield as Australia and Canada getting in touch. We have enjoyed the help of Graham Shutt, who taught at school for many years, and whose book about Prince Henry’s was launched here last year"

He added: "Otley Museum has also been involved – it’s a real community effort. There will memories from annual hobby shows of the past, Prince Henry’s during the War, stories from past students, news of our Kerr Scholars, ad hoc tours and more!”

The exhibition, which will be held in the Main Hall at Prince Henry’s, is free to enter and tours of the school will be held throughout the Saturday opening.
