School Magazines, documentation & articles
This page features a set of school magazines, from 1913 to 1973, held in the JGTrust Alumni archive. They are scanned in pdf format and can be downloaded. The alumni team are very anxious to locate copies of school magazines from 1973 onwards that we can add to this list. If you have any school magazines that you would be willing to donate, lend (for scan and return) or send digitially we would be very pleased to receive them. The magazines are a fascinating insight into school life at James Gillespie’s over a 60-year period and make very interesting reading. We will also be delighted to received your comments on, and your personal recollections of, the school magazines and your thoughts on the website.
