To all Ibbetsonians
We
are delighted to inform you that Ibbetson House of
Bishop
Cotton
School
is celebrating its 100th Anniversary this year.
Ibbetson
House was formed in 1907 to honour Sir
Denzil Ibbetson, Governor of Punjab who had helped the school to get
back on its feet after the Great Fire.
One hundred years later we can look back at the glorious history
of the past and the illustrious boys who brought laurels to the House
and went further on to make a mark in the world.
So
dear Ibbetsonians, it is time to celebrate one hundred years of
striving; one hundred years of achieving and one hundred years of glory.
We
are planning to celebrate the Jubilee on the 7th of November
at School. A wonderful
programme has been chalked out and preparations are in full swing to
make the occasion a memorable one.
It
is our honour to invite all Ibbetsonians to be present at the Jubilee
celebrations and participate in all the exciting events that are being
planned. Your presence would
add grace and warmth to the
occasion. It would be a time
to look back with pride and nostalgia and to plan for greater glory for
the boys, for the house and for the School in the years to come.
We
hope to see you on the 7th November, 2007, to celebrate 100
glorious years of our beloved Ibbetson House.
