The Memorial Great Hall opened in 1954 and was built as a commemoration to the 40 men who died in WWII and as a tribute to the many Old Carey Grammarians who served in that war. To complete the building, it was decided that a stained-glass window should be installed in the tower. Mr Alan Sumner, a distinguished artist and artisan in stainedglass was commissioned. His brief was that the Torchbearer, a potent symbol of the School with the motto Anime et Fide, should be the subject for the window. Once completed the window was then carefully installed in the tower facing Barkers Road.
