You may have seen the Christine Derbyshire trophy on visits to the museum. Christine was a St James pupil who sadly died when she was only 12. Her parents donated the trophy to the school in her memory and it was given to the pupil deemed to have done something above and beyond every year. When the old school closed in 1977 the trophy went to the new school on Dorchester Road where it continued to be presented - the list shows the pupils from both schools who received the trophy.

We do not why the trophy was returned to the museum but it was and has been in a sorry state for many years but has now been repaired and it will be going back to St James school in the autumn.
