Philip Cram (ON 1974)

Newington’s Head of Grounds Fotis Doulougeris and his wife Nicola happened upon an Old Boy on their recent travels through country New South Wales. The highlight of their trip was to discover a B&B in Carcoar owned by Newington Old Boy, Philip Cram.  Upon entering the B&B Fotis and Nicola noticed a Newington Boater on the hatstand. They asked Philip about the boater and the Newington connection. He shared with Fotis that he also has a piece of marble from the long ago demolished Sevington House fireplace.

If you are in the area, Philip’s B&B is Stoke House Carcoar, 12 Naylor Street, Carcoar NSW 2791 www.stokehousecarcoar.com

Sydney Churchward (ON 1941)

The College was honoured to host Sydney and his family late last year. Sydney has terminal cancer and was keen to see Newington one last time. Sydney is 92 years old and has enjoyed a long and wonderful life and isn’t it fantastic that he wanted to see the College one last time.
