Harrow Songs

What an amazing evening! Being in a full Speech Room and hearing those songs makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up every time. Last night, though, was extra special. We were so proud of our Old Boy who sang the solo in Five Hundred Faces. It must have been the most daunting experience to do the whole thing from memory but he was brilliant! If we were proud, imagine how his parents and grandparents must have felt! A truly unforgettable event.

Churchill Songs at Harrow

Rather a late night last night watching the start of the Ashes. I was boyishly excited but rather deflated after Andrew Strauss's third ball exit.

Anyway, I am rather more excited about the prospect of going to Harrow tonight for Churchill Songs. One of our Old Boys is singing the solo for Five Hundred Faces which is a huge honour for him and makes us feel very proud!

Prep schools conference

At a very interesting conference at Wellington today. I don't usually
like this sort of thing but it does give me the chance to take a step
back and think about what we are doing. There are also some inspiring
speakers such as Rob Andrew and Ranulph Feinnes.

Theatre Trip

I am really looking forward to the trip to the Theatre Royal in Windsor today. It is such a lovely theatre. We are taking the whole school to see 'The Haunting', an adaptation of Charles Dickens' Tales of the Unexpected. It should be great fun.

Football

It's just not fair. Game ended 1-2. Their equaliser was miles offside.
The refereeing was quite appalling. I feel so sorry for the boys. They
didn't deserve that.

Football

1-0 half time. Don't take it away now!

Football

I have a great feeling about today's game. Trying a new shape. Come on
the 'Dale!
