Welcome

Haileyburiana is a miscellany of things I got up to as President of the Haileybury Society in 2010 - 2011 and random musings on things to do with Haileybury. Whether you are an OH, a current pupil or parent, a teacher or other friend of the school I hope you will find something interesting here. The blog is no longer regularly updated, but there may still be occasional posts.

Lift Up Your Hearts


The Dean of Coventry Cathedral is John Irvine (E 1962). The Cathedral is famous for its work if reconciliation. Just as Haileybury will celebrate 150 years in 2012, so in the same year the new Coventry Cathedral will celebrate its Golden Jubilee.


The Dean writes on the cathedral website:

To walk from the ruins of the old Cathedral into the splendour of the new is to walk from Good Friday to Easter, from the ravages of human self-destruction to the glorious hope of resurrection. Your heart is lifted, your spirit is renewed and you feel that there is hope for the world. Thanks to God's mercy, reconciliation is possible.


There is a virtual tour of the Cathedral here
