JEFF SEWELL VISIT

It was a great honour and pleasure for us to host Jeff Sewell again at St. John's and in Marlborough. This is the second visit by Jeff and in his previous trip it was his initiative that managed to link the two schools together.


Whilst we only had a short time with his company, again Jeff showed us his warm and positive nature and several students were able to meet him and tell him about the links between SJ and MGC. More importantly, he managed to bring a gift half-way around the world from Mr Adamson which we received with open arms! After our humorous video conference exchanges where rugby often becomes a topic of conversation we were hugely honoured to receive a NZ All Blacks shirt!!!!

ROCKLEY WATERSPORTS TRIP

Hi all in NZ. Have a look at this link to a recent watersports trip that  we do each year. This is in the South-West of France on two amazing lakes that have natural white sand.


This was for 50 students in Y.8, 9,10 and involves sailing, kayaking, windsurfing, biking, etc...


This blog should give you a good view of the trip. Click on the link...
