Marden High School’s History Detectives would like to invite members of the local community to St George’s Church in Cullercoats this Sunday 8th November at 9.30am for a dedication service for the new memorial to the fallen WW1 soldiers of Cullercoats.
As our new building takes space in the shadow of our current one, construction firm Turner and Townsend have revealed an ambitious link up plan with Marden High, supporting our unique curriculum.
Friday 10th July marked the end of our Cullercoats WW1 Memorial project, and our History Detectives have been hosting an all day Show and Share event, presenting projects about their ‘adopted’ soldiers of Cullercoats.
