All of year 13 and the Burr tutor team took a night out at the Chef Pekin in Henley last night, with no agenda other than eating well and relaxing. I took the opportunity to award House Colours to Jeremy Pattie and Melissa de Haan, who are great Chapel Wardens, to Alvin Tang who has been a very reliable house prefect, and to Nick Gong whose outstanding work and reliable duties brings much credit to Burr. Nick has offers from UCL and Southampton. I also awarded House Colours to Aussie gapper James Hall, who's done a lot for Burr, including coaching several Burr boys in the U 15 A XV.
Talking of rugby, we did: the fixtures today are against Magdalen College School, where Mrs Michelle Baker's husband Matt is a Maths teacher so there will some divided loyalties on the touchline this afternoon.
Surprise visitor was a local landscape gardener, Jack Mercer, who left last year.
Many thanks to Mr Charley "The Chef" Smith who organised the tables, Mr Rich Starr for bringing his camera, and Padre Ru Jarvis who stepped in to look after Burr to allow all tutors to be together.
