The apostrophe thing made me laugh as being dyslexic my ability to get their placement right is not consistent, and the way I've always remembered how to place them is the recall where they are in Colston's Girls' School. (None of the teachers would have been impressed if we'd got it wrong, but Mrs Hughes the Deputy Head was particularly fierce on the matter).

I'm happy the name changed, (and in fact voted to change it by dint of being and Old Girl), but I'm hoping it's able to retain the connection to the ugly medieval style dolphins. Certainly when I was there we were fairly certain EC would not have approved of our school, but we loved the ugly Dolphins.

(It also doesn't surprise me that Colston Collegiate, (Colston's Boys that was) voted to keep the name. There was a reason we as a school hated the posh twats. (They in turn hated us for not being posh)

(I keep on going back and forth on whether to keep this icon, but it was the uniform I wore and having escaped from Redmaids it was a sanctuary to me at that time)
