Bromsgrove and District Flower Arranging Society were honoured to have been asked to provide flower arrangements and posies for the opening ceremony of a new annexe to North Bromsgrove High School. This was opened by HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN on March 1st 2001.

A team of six members (pictured below) were chosen to arrange the flowers. Back row left to right: Chris Harten, Sheila Blankstone. Front row, left to right: Suzie Carter, Gill Eley, Pam Gattas. Unfortunately, Jean Ward was not available for the photo.
