Harrow to celebrate Queen's Diamond Jubilee with Churchill Songs at the Royal Albert Hall

"Songs are always an emotional moment (curious institution for a boys' school). With our Queen among us our hearts were exalted more than ever before." Thus began the report in The Harrovian on the Songs concert held on the occasion of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s visit to Harrow in 1957. Queen Elizabeth visited Harrow again in 1971 and in 1986 Her Majesty came to Harrow for a third time to attend the 47th Churchill Songs as the Guest of Honour.
The School is celebrating her Diamond Jubilee by holding Churchill Songs in the Royal Albert Hall on Tuesday 20 November 2012. Read more

Why give to Harrow?

Although rich and varied in many ways, Harrow’s general reserves are minimal and school fees do not generate a surplus for bursaries or building new facilities. Today, the School still needs your support.

 

Annual results 2009-2010

The number of individuals, trusts or organisations who contributed to Harrow rose from 461 to 606 in the year, of which 240 were new or first-time donors. Click here for the full Annual Report of the Harrow Development Trust.
