What do the archives contain?
The College archives contain documentary and photographic memorabilia and historic artifacts. Materials relating to the lives and achievements of Old Eastbournians and former staff are classified and maintained as is information on buildings, sport, activities and major events.

Donations are always welcome
Memorabilia to support these records are frequently donated by OEs and others, and are occasionally purchased. Each term an exhibition covering some aspect of College history is mounted for the interest of current pupils and articles are submitted for the Old Eastbournian magazine.

Making enquiries
Enquiries from OE families, authors and others are frequently received and responded to. These may require research involving reference to libraries, museums, public bodies, learned societies and other sources in both the UK and overseas.

Contact the archivist
The archives are maintained by two OEs, Michael Partridge and Simon Wood, who can be contacted on 01323 451901 or mp@eastbourne-college.co.uk. Postal enquiries can be sent to The Archivist at the College's main address.

Archive material on the website
We were recently asked to put the School Prayer and the School Song on the website. You can also see the Football Song and the Millennium Hymn. Please let us know if you have any other requests for material you would like to see.
