Welcome to our website

The above photograph was taken at Marley Hill School in 1995 whilst celebrating the schools 100th birthday.

Sadly the banner has vanished while in the custody of the NUM Headquarters Redhills. Despite a publicity campaign and a Police investigation, the banner remains lost. We are contemplating applying for funding to have a replacement banner constructed.
