  • Newsletter #4 October 2019 Dear Old Boys Even in the Relative Quiet of the Balgowan Valley We Are Amazed That the End of the Year Is Almost on Us
    Newsletter #4 October 2019 Dear Old Boys Even in the relative quiet of the Balgowan Valley we are amazed that the end of the year is almost on us. Just a few weeks until the boys pack their laughter and lively noise into cars and buses, leaving silent cloisters in their wake. It has been a full and eventful year at Michaelhouse and we have enjoyed recording the more recent Old Boy happenings in this newsletter. Ryan Thomson is our past Senior Prefect featured in this edition. The solar cooker, which Ryan developed during his engineering studies may well become one of my retirement projects! Robbie Leggat is completing the St Michael Statue commissioned by Graham McIntosh, which will soon be a prominent feature at the front of school. Christian Botha returned to school to open the Matric Art Exhibition and inspire our current art students. A few more old boys who are leading schools and making a difference to the lives of young people in classrooms around the world, have found their way onto these pages, as has Simon d ’Aubrey, making his name on agriculture. Storm Green has made the queen’s birthday honours list and Tim Harkness met James Fleming at the Elite Sport Summit Conference in Cape town, where he provided new insights into the psychology of success in sport. Old Boys continue to excel on the rivers, on their bikes and on the sports fields globally, performing well in the Berg and Bush, Amashova, Fish River Marathon and on the rugby field in Ireland. Joshin Raghubar is a John McNulty Prize laureate for his work in IT and the Midlands Branch managed to entice Keith Begg to Fordoun where he shared his inspirational life work in wildlife filming and, more recently, community-based conservation in Niassa.

  • Transport Guidelines to Parents
    09 February 2021 Dear Parents TRAVEL AT MICHAELHOUSE Departure Guidelines In selecting Michaelhouse as your son’s school, parents not living in the vicinity of the school accept the fact that travel is necessary and will mean that some boys get home just a few hours later than others. I write to you in this regard as requests for early departures put the Housemaster in a difficult position and, while we do not want to be unreasonable, equally we need to be proactive in guarding the time needed for all the facets of a Michaelhouse education. We therefore appeal to parents to be thoughtful and considered around departure times. If leaving early is a necessity from a logistical perspective, the school will do what it can to accommodate this. Requests out of convenience cannot, however, in most cases, be accommodated. Please direct all requests for early departure to your son’s Housemaster. Concessions will be considered under the following circumstances: • Connecting flights for international travel require a boy to depart early • Flights to the airport closest to a boy’s home are extremely limited and returning home would not be viable if the school was not prepared to accommodate this. • Parents are present at a school-sanctioned function and it would not be logical or feasible to make two time-consuming trips to pick up their son. The pre-requisites for this concession would be that it does not compromise a boy’s other school commitments and the departure time is after the school sanctioned event. Boys cannot get lifts home with other boy’s parents in these instances.

  • Chronicle for 1955
    r- -J-SM: KEARSNEY j. COLLEGE CHRONICLE O#?PE o\t^ ■im July, 1955 '. "sy KEARSNEY COLLEGE CHRONICLE WPE D\^ July, 1955 m m M ipt m A / m 8® © w SCHOOL LAYOUT, INCLUDING PEMBROKE HOUSE. Kearsney College Chronicle Vol. 4, No. I July, 1955 ON SCHOOL MAGAZINES I think It will be generally agreed that, except for those most intimately concerned, School Magazines would not be classified among the "best sellers". They contain none of the features which attract the common herd, not even a bathing beauty on the cover (though it's an idea). Their interest-value is very local; to the outsider, the lists of event-winners or prize-winners have the monotony of a telephone directory, and does it really matter whether we won the match or lost it? Only to those most closely concerned does it matter. What, Magazine Reader, do you look for? Let's be honest. Yes, of course. You turn over hastily to those places where your own name is likely to appear: your own name, gold-embroidered, standing there for everyone to see, if it were not for the fact that they are too busy looking for their own names. That done, what else is there of interest? Well—you already knew the results of the matches, so that is not news; the activities of your Society are known to you and of no interest to anyone else; the Old Boys' News is just a catalogue of unknown names; articles are boring, except for the writers. Yes, surely this is not a best-seller.

    Memories of Michaelhouse The First 100 Years < //e/?i(>r(C'S sf « /Jfe/iae//o(('S'e The First One Hundred Years 1896-1996 Introduction / remember, I remember the house where I was born, the little window w here the sun came peeping in at morn. Thomas Hood. As we grow older our memories become more precious to us, and most vivi dly we recall the turbulent years of our adolescence, our hopes and fea rs, our loves and hates, our triumphs and our failures. Memories of school days at Michaelhouse are unique for each individual, b ut the photographs and stories in this book, reflecting each decade of th e school's hundred years, will, we hope, evoke for every old boy a pleasa nt feeling of nostalgia. Each reader can people the familiar places with his own contemporaries and the staff of his day. Yesterday evening, Sunday 14th May, 1995, I was roaming around the estat e. Autumn leaves carpeted the ground and the setting sun bathed the vall ey in a romantic rosy glow. I felt nostalgic. As I passed by the chapel I thought of Charles Hannah making his annual visit and hopefully 'final ' farewell sermon. None of us cared to hear for the umpteenth time the o ld man's reminiscences, including how he had walked round the Oval with Canon Todd deciding where each tree was to be planted. Passing through t he passage way, where the staff nowadays collect their post from their p igeonholes, I remember it as the entrance hall of the Rectory, and I rec all dinner parties in these rooms which are now offices, Fred and Margar et Snell our gracious hosts.
