Wrexham Museum are looking for old school uniforms and jumpers to feature in an upcoming exhibition.

Former pupils of St David’s High School, Bryn Offa Secondary School, Ysgol Rhiwabon, Ruabon Grammar, Grove Park Boys, Grove Park Girls, Groves High, Darland High, Bryn Alyn Secondary or Yale High are being invited to get involved and loan the museum any old items they may have.

This can include jumpers, blazers, pinafores, shirts and ties from the 1980s or earlier for ‘Back To School’, a forthcoming exhibition about Wrexham’s schools.

No such items exist in the museum collection, so staff are hoping that examples may have survived in the back of a wardrobe or in the attic in someone’s home in the area.

All items will be returned after the exhibition finishes.

If you can help, please contact Wrexham Museum on 01978 297 460 or email: [email protected] Please phone or email first to avoid disappointment.
