  • THE OLD REDINGENSIAN Spring 2007
    THE OLD REDINGENSIAN Spring 2007 Henry VII King of England Benefactor of Reading School 1486 The Presidentʼs Letter I am delighted to have been accepted as President of the OR Association for 2007 and to contribute to the institution that is Reading School. In so doing, I am conscious that, whilst I have been a Council member for the last two years, I have been very much “in absentia” due to work commitments. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to the membership and outline my thoughts upon our direction for this coming year. For background, I was a pupil at Reading School from 1978-85 and infl uenced by several Masters who are now pillars of OR life such as John Oakes, Bob Lewis and Mike Evans. I ended my time at the School as Captain of West House and Cadet RSM of the CCF. Commissioned into the Army in 1987, I have served all over the World and currently command 13 Air Assault Support Regiment, The Royal Logistic Corps, based in Colchester. We are part of the Air Assault Brigade and deployed on operations in Afghanistan last summer. I am married to Jackie and have two children, Adam who currently attends Colchester Royal Grammar School, and Gemma, who will start at the Colchester Girls High School (also a grammar) this September. In my time on the Council I have been impressed by is very positive about harnessing our support along the selfl essness and commitment of a determined with Governors, parents and the Foundation to realise band of Association members who organise and further benefi ts for the School.

This coincides with the 50th edition of the map, published today with an October date to reflect the start of Lumo operations.

  • 2020 Book News Welcome to Our 2020 Book News
    2020 Book News Welcome to our 2020 Book News. It’s hard to believe another year has gone by already and what a challenging year it’s been on many fronts. We finally got the Hallmark book launched at Showbus. The Red & White volume is now out on final proof and we hope to have copies available in time for Santa to drop under your tree this Christmas. Sorry this has taken so long but there have been many hurdles to overcome and it’s been a much bigger project than we had anticipated. Several other long term projects that have been stuck behind Red & White are now close to release and you’ll see details of these on the next couple of pages. Whilst mentioning bigger projects and hurdles to overcome, thank you to everyone who has supported my latest charity fund raiser in aid of the Christie Hospital. The Walk for Life challenge saw me trekking across Greater Manchester to 11 cricket grounds, covering over 160 miles in all weathers, and has so far raised almost £6,000 for the Christie. You can read more about this by clicking on the Christie logo on the website or visiting my Just Giving page www.justgiving.com/fundraising/mark-senior-sue-at-60 Please note our new FREEPOST address is shown below, it’s just: FREEPOST MDS BOOK SALES You don’t need to add anything else, there’s no need for a street name or post code. In fact, if you do add something, it will delay the letter or could even mean we don’t get it.
