About Lady Day It was on Lady Day in 1914 that our beautiful Chapel, dedicated to St Mary and St George, was consecrated. On that day Canon Henn celebrated a Holy Eucharist early in the morning. A little later the Consecration Service, attended by Church dignitaries and 150 visitors, was led by Bishop Riley, Bishop of Perth. In the afternoon a Thanksgiving Service was attended by the Governor, officials of the Church of England, Secretary of the Old Guildfordians’ Association, visitors, staff and students. After dinner, Canon Henn officiated at a Service of Choral Evensong attended by the masters and students only. 12
