Talented pupils from @gabbot_news and @WVCSecondary worked with Liliana Montoya & Carlos España of #AlunaCeramics to create our 400th Anniversary tiles; a lovely way to honour our founder the late #ArchbishopGeorgeAbbot. The tiled panels will be displayed in Guildford in 2020.

Ex Governor Keith Childs unveiled 2 of 4 colourful Legacy tiled panels in front of residents and guests to mark our 400th anniversary year. Liliana Montoya and Carlos España of #AlunaCeramics designed the panels with the assistance of a grant from the @HeritageFundUK.
