The Broadland Window

in the

Launceston Church Grammar School Chapel

​

In June 2016 the journey began towards raising funds for a Broadland Window in the Grammar Chapel.

 

On behalf of the Broadland House Old Girls Committee I am delighted to report that due to the generosity of Broadland House families the required funds were raised in 632 days.

 

The Bishop of Tasmania, The Right Reverend Richard Condie dedicated the Broadland Window in the Grammar Chapel on Thursday 15 March 2018, assisted by Reverend Jo Pyecroft and Chaplain Reverend Paul Grayston

 

I wish I could relate to you in words the sense of emotion in the Chapel on that very wet and cold Thursday. Nothing could mar the celebration.....................

Yes there were tears.

Tears of happiness.

Hugs abounded and there was a sense of belonging, a joining of the past and the present and one of healing.

Our Broadland School song has never been sung with such pride.

​

The Chapel filled with two hundred guests including Launceston Church Grammar prefects, students and the Broadland Voices Choir, many of whom are descendants of Broadland Old Girls..

 

The Broadland Window in the Grammar Chapel will be a lasting memorial to Broadland, a window of healing, caring and forgiveness and of looking to the future, one of Christian love, care and education and its continuation through the present school.

 

My sincerest thanks to my incredible 2017-2018 committee Ann Fysh, Jenni Bell, Joan McLean, Rachel Peck-Israel, Heather Ranson, Elizabeth Robins, Rosemary Stobart and Audrey Youl.

 

To countless Old Girls and supporters, members of the Grammar Board of Management, retired Headmaster Mr Stephen Norris, Headmaster Mr Richard Ford and his staff my humble and sincerest thanks. This includes everyone of you who have worked tirelessly towards this goal, and accompanied us on this journey and who believed the dream of a Broadland Window in the Grammar Chapel was possible.
