2015-09-17 | Head of Stanmore

Dear Parents and Guardians,

The magnificent weather over this past week has ensured a fabulous finish to Term 3 and has also provided perfect conditions for our outdoor education camps. I commend Major Rod Wood, Mr James Norman and all the attending staff on their organisation and commitment to the Cadet and Newington Challenge camps respectively.

Last week’s Valedictory celebrations proved to be most memorable and I congratulate Jack Jacobs (11/FL) on his appointment as Senior Prefect for 2016 alongside his able deputies Alexander Barrat (11/JN) and Jeremi Campese (11/MA).

I wish all families a safe and relaxing holiday.

Dr Andrew Hirst - Deputy Headmaster/ Head of Stanmore
