Haigh House, named after Bishop Haigh, former Bishop of Coventry, has become synonymous with success and camaraderie. The eye-catching shirts worn by the students were a brilliant fundraising idea by Ken Sedgewick, house head. Little did he know that these shirts would soon become popular leisure wear among the students. They not only symbolize unity but also serve as a reminder of their achievements in both academics and sports. In this photograph captured on 9th July 1981, we see Alison Murray, Mandy Skelton, Vicki Cunningham, Paul Sidhu, Dean Walden, Melanie Nelson, Suzanne Walker Jackie Hart Aneeta Abrol and Peter Sidhu running alongside a member of Gorton House.
