Family For Life

In order to mark The Schools 40th birthday and the beginning of this new millennium, we launched what we believe is a unique website during the summer/autumn of 2000.

Hall Mead's creed is headed 'A Family for Life'. The School regards itself as one very large family and its ethos reflects this in every respect. Pupils and Parents speak of 'the Hall Mead Family'. Many former pupils stay in contact and we know that many more would like to. A significant number of Old-HallMeadians move back into the area so that their children can attend the School.

The Family for Life website will combine a consciousness of Hall Mead's history, the continuity which the School represents, and its contribution to the future, using up-to the minute technology as befits its Technology College Status.

The aims of the Website are as follows:

To facilitate contacts between Old-HallMeadians and between them and the School

To maximise support for the School and its pupils from Old-Hallmeadians

To provide information which will contribute to the production of a history of the school

To provide educational opportunities for current pupils, in particular by allowing them to contribute to the running of the Website.
We intend through this initiative, to establish a database containing details of as many of Hall Mead's pupils and staff- in total, about 7,500 over the 40 years - as possible. The information in the database will, of course be protected and only accessible by members of the 'family'.

A lifetime subscription of £10 allows you to register your information on the database and to update it when-ever you wish. It will also give you access to news of other Old-Hall Meadians and, of course, developments at the School.

We hope that you will want to appear in the 'Family for Life'. If so, then please request a form from the School Office, complete and return the forms together with the fee, giving as much information as you wish, in an envelope marked "Old-Hallmeadians". A cheque for £10 should be made payable to "Hall Mead School Fund'.
