The autumn term is now upon us and we are glad to be seeing all the children for the new school year.We are fortunate that for the second half of the summer term we had several year groups in school and by the end of term nearly all year groups were back, including over 50 boarders.This term, we are offering a broad and balanced curriculum, including sport and activities. We are very positive about the return to school, though, given the success of OPS Online during lockdown, we are ready and able to offer distance learning should the circumstances arise in the future.

Thank you to our 2019 leavers and their families, and we hope you have enjoyed your first year of senior school! 2 3 FROM WILD FLOWER COMPETITIONS By John IronsideWood (1953-58) The following was provoked by the taster of the Old OrwellianArchive featured in the Spring 2020 e-newsletter with its report on Natural History Collections. Wild flower collections have long since gone out of fashion and I suspect the Orwell Park annual competition for the best wild flower collection disappeared some time in the 1960s. However, I took part in 1957 and 1958, winning the competition in collaboration with Marnix Wells in the latter year.I can remember collecting specimens in the grounds (Bell Heather near the river), near my home in Essex and on a picnic to the River Stour where I collected River Water Dropwort while swimming in the river.We were encouraged by the late Patrick Sarsfield, poet and painter as well as inspiring teacher, who I met up with in Brighton several times before his death in 2012. The point of this note is that the unfashionable wild flower competition began a life-long passion for plants which runs like a thread through my life.At first, it was just a hobby that stimulated an interest in travel to the wilder parts of the British Isles and a delight in mountains.When I got a job teaching in Sarawak after leaving Cambridge, the then untouched forests fired an interest in tropical Collecting parasitic plants from a tree inYemen, 1975 plants.This continued through a series of jobs in English language teaching and education in Somalia, Yemen, Bhutan, Colombia and Bolivia working for the British Council and the Department for International Development. In each place I combined my official work with botanical exploration in deserts, the mountains of the Himalayas and the Andes, and in tropical forests.As the years passed, I gradually developed a second part-time career in botany, taking occasional short term contracts, developing links with botanical institutions in different countries and publishing scientific papers. It was the publications that led to an invitation to join a team of researchers at the Department of Plant Sciences at Oxford University in 2001, where I have been based ever since.I have been involved in the inception and implementation of Darwin Initiative projects related to biodiversity and conservation in Bolivia as well as in global studies of the systematics of several plant groups, most recently the sweet potato and its 800 wild relatives. Results of this study include the recognition of over Bolivia, 2006 60 new species as well as the discovery of evidence 4 to question the existence of Pre-Colombian links between Polynesia and South America, popularised by the Kon-Tiki expedition. Although most of my fieldwork has been in South America, my research and contacts have taken me from China and India to Cuba and Mexico and I would have travelled to three South American countries this year if Covid- 19 had not struck. This all came from an unlikely beginning with those wild flower competitions in the 1950s. You can learn more about the history of Orwell Park School through our Digital Archive.Visit archive.orwellpark.org. Alternatively, our celebratory book is available at a cost of £40 with funds going to The Orwell Park School Foundation.

  • Appointment of Second in Charge Hockey
    APPOINTMENT OF SECOND IN CHARGE HOCKEY Required from 16 August 2020 (for pre-season training), and with the opportunity to attend the Summer Hockey Tour to South Africa in early July 2020 THE SCHOOL Ipswich School has been listed as one of the top 100 schools in the country and is certainly one of the foremost independent schools in East Anglia. We have recently been voted Suffolk’s top independent school (The Sunday Times Parent Power 2016-19*). We were established prior to 1399, although we moved to our present site in 1852. We have over 1,080 pupils aged between 3 and 19 and we are fully co-educational. The Lodge Day Nursery opened in January 2018 and provides the very best care for younger children aged 3 months to 3 years. The most recent Inspection of the Senior School (November 2014) rated us as excellent in all categories, a judgement of which we are very proud. The School operates a 5 day week, with representative sports played during the week and on Saturdays. At Ipswich School our key aim is to encourage pupils to realise and fulfil their potential. By treating them as individuals, providing the best possible pastoral care, and kindling a real interest in their studies, we hope that they will enjoy their education and achieve the best possible results. Our Sports programme, under the leadership of our Director of Sport, is entering an exciting new, professional phase and we are proud to have been ranked as the 26th strongest Independent Sports School in the country by School Sports Magazine last year.
