The behaviour of the students who accompanied me to Rupert House today was excellent. They performed their duties well and displayed a visible enthusiasm which I am sure made a huge difference to the pupils competing. The organisers even suggested that this was the best group of Shiplake students they had seen!
But I feel special mention must go to Kit Bowerin. Saddled with the most demanding tasks he spent the day rushing backwards and forwards, setting up race after race to such an extent that one might have been forgiven for assuming he was responsible for running the event. When his duties were done he chose to assist the others in theirs. The organisers singled him out with a special thank you and I would like to do the same. Exceptional dedication, initiative and enthusiasm.
Well Done Kit.
