HENRY FIRST PLAYED IN HIGH- GOAL TOURNAMENTS WHEN HE WAS ONLY 17, WINNING BOTH THE QUEEN’S CUP AND THE PRINCE OF WALES TROPHY. HE THEN WENT ON TO WIN THE VEUVE CLICQUOT GOLD CUP IN 1999. IN 2002, LED BY HENRY, ENGLAND WON A HISTORIC ARGENTINE CUP VICTORY OVER ARGENTINA AND IN 2006 HE RECEIVED THE ULTIMATE ACCOLADE - THE CARTIER PEGASUS TROPHY FOR THE MOST VALUABLE PLAYER FROM HM THE QUEEN.

When did you start to ride? I started riding when I was eight and started polo when I was 13. As a champion polo rider, and as the former Captain of the England Polo Team, who has had the most influence on you? Probably Jim Gilmore, Kerry Packer’s Manager, who taught me a lot about horses. Who have you trained with? I have played and trained with and against all the best players. Most of my training I do by myself nowadays although in the earlier years I used to spend a lot of time in Argentina in different estancias, although not with one particular person. And, who has shared in your total experience as a polo rider? My parents; they have lived through all my experiences playing polo...all the ups and the downs! Your plans for the next four years? I am developing a young horse programme which I have already started and has produced some pretty good horses. I want to keep playing at the highest level I can in England, and during the winter play in places that I enjoy. Besides playing polo, do you have a side job? 2006, Henry & HM the Queen at the Cartier International at Guards Polo Club in Windsor Great Park, England I play professionally but I also have 6 Henry competing with Mrs. Brown at the Cartier International 7 a polo school at the Royal County of the gym more often as I am playing up to male players?

    November 2016 Volume 1, Issue 3 Message From the Director ASI’S VISION, MISSION & ETHOS Dear ASI Families, Students, and Stakeholders, I am excited to share that ASI has officially adopted its school Vision, Mission, and Ethos! Before sharing, I want to recap the process of drafting and finalizing ASI’s School Vision, Mis- sion, and Ethos that took place. All parents, teachers, and University stakeholders were invited to a Town Hall to participate in working groups where they reviewed the organizational defini- tions of Vision, Mission, and Ethos, reviewed our English speaking school counterparts in Morocco Vision, Mission, and Ethos, and concluded in drafting their own group Vision, Mis- sion, and Ethos for ASI. There were 10 working groups in all. After the town hall in a follow up meeting, a small working group of PA members, parents, teachers, and a student representative met to review the 10 proposed Visions, Missions, and Ethos from the town hall working groups. The group identified trends and themes and I am delighted to share that we have finalized the following: Vision: ASI inspires students to be critical thinkers with holistic knowledge while seeking academic excellence and embracing integrity.

  • Embassy of India, Rabat
    EMBASSY OF INDIA RABAT INDIA-MOROCCO BILATERAL RELATIONS 07 June 2019 1. POLITICAL RELATIONS 1.1 Historical Background (i) India and Morocco have interacted in historical terms going back to the 14 th century when the famous traveller and writer from Tangier, Ibn Batuta travelled to India. His writings on medieval Indian society are as much an important source of historical information about India to the Indians as to the Moroccans. In modern history, India was active in the UN supporting the Moroccan freedom movement and recognized Morocco on 20 June 1956 when it became independent of the protectorate arrangements with France and diplomatic Missions were established in 1957. Since the establishment of relations, India and Morocco have enjoyed cordial and friendly ties. (ii) After the meeting of HM King Mohammed VI with Prime Minister of India on 29 October 2015, on the sidelines of the third India-Africa Forum Summit (IAFS-III) in New Delhi, India-Morocco bilateral relations have intensified and that can be seen in 22 Ministerial visits from both the countries and signing of 37MoUs/Agreements in the areas such as education, space, information technology, cyber security, pharmaceuticals, etc since October 2015. As per provisional trade figures of Statistics Bulletin of Office des Changes, Government of Morocco, for the period January-December 2018, bilateral trade stood at approx US$ 1.8 Billion, which is probably the highest since the establishment of diplomatic relations. 1.2 High level bilateral visits 1.2.1 From Indian Side (i) Dr. Zakir Hussain, Vice President visited Morocco in 1967. Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Prime Minister visited Morocco in 1999, the first Indian Prime Minister to visit Morocco, thus paving the way for developing closer and intense relations with the political leadership of Morocco.
