PULL on your purple blazers - today we’re taking a nostalgic trip to Colchester Royal Grammar School.
In the latest of a series of archive pictures, we have ten more to bring you from yesteryear.
They range from both ends of the last century, with early images featuring the opening of the school grounds in 1910 and one of students from Harsnett’s House.
Then, as we leap through the decades, we also have pictures of students surfing the internet and strolling to school in the 1990s.
Known as one of the best schools in the country for exam success - and probably best known in Colchester for its iconic purple blazers - Colchester Royal Grammar School has been a part of our town for more than 450 years.
