2010 marks the 150^th Anniversary of the establishment of Wesleyan/Methodist/United Church and Presbyterian Education in St. John’s. To celebrate this occasion and to provide permanent markers to that tradition and to two of its most prominent centers of learning, the former Holloway School on Longs Hill and Prince of Wales College, on LeMarchant Rd., it is planned to erect two memorials in their memory.

To fund our share of these Memorials, the PWC/Holloway Memorial Alumni Committee is embarked upon a financial campaign among its former students, the Old Collegians, and our many other supporters. As many as possible are being reached by letter and accompanying brochures, graphically depicting the proposed sites.
