This isn't my mum's school but it's in a similar position - there are two pipe organs (one small, recently-acquired Peter Collins, one unplayable 1930s Rushworth & Dreaper, which the school want rid of) but there's just nowhere to put what they actually need. They've recently spent several million on a new hall commemorating the school's 450th anniversary (though none of the buildings extant predate the 1930s).
That's absolutely bizarre. My old school (MGS) has a small Peter Collins, an unplayable 1930s Rushworth and Dreaper (that probably very few people even know exists since the pipework is hidden behind a wooden screen at the front of the hall, and the console was dismantled by my father and me to make way for the Peter Collins). The buildings date from the 1930s, acquired a new hall recently and might have been the same school except mine is 497 years old this year. Where are you?
