  • The Old St Beghian
    No. 191 The Old St Beghian July 2017 Editor: Dr A. J. H. Reeve, 6 Abbey Farm, St Bees, Cumbria, CA27 0DY. Tel: (01946) 822472 Email: [email protected] The New Headmaster: Mr Jeremy Hallows We welcome Mr Jeremy Hallows as the new Headmaster of the school. He will take up his post in September 2017, a year in advance of the formal reopening. Mr Hallows, a Zoology graduate of the University of Sheffield, has formerly been Head of the Senior School at Bromsgrove School in Worcestershire. Prior to this he had extensive teaching and leadership experience at Wellington School and Millfield. Married with four children, he has a number of interests, mainly sporting, and is a keen musician. He joins St Bees at a time of great challenge and exciting opportunities as the school reopens, and we hope that he and his family will be very happy here. The Trustees’ Newsletter Enclosed with this Bulletin you will find the next issue of the Newsletter prepared by the Board of Trustees. It continues their policy of keeping OSBs and the general community as up to date as possible with the progress being made to re- establish education at St Bees School in September 2018. There are some especially important announcements in this issue and it will repay OSBs’ careful perusal, particularly as to how they may be able to ensure the future success of the school in the years ahead. 1 From Our President Dacre Watson (SH 56-62) It was about three years ago this month that I had lunch with the retiring President of the St Beghian Society for a ‘handover’ chat; it was comprehensive, brief and entirely enjoyable with the result that I came away feeling that I would be looking forward to the next two years.

  • The Old St Beghian
    No. 194 The Old St Beghian January 2019 Editor: Dr A. J. H. Reeve, 6 Abbey Farm, St Bees, Cumbria, CA27 0DY. Tel: (01946) 822472 Email: [email protected] From Our President Peter Lever (G 62-66) Dear Old St Beghians, As I write this note for the January 2019 Bulletin I reflect on the 184 crosses which lined the approach to St Bees Priory Church, each one naming an OSB killed in the First World War. This is what greeted one on a wet and windy Remembrance Day Sunday morning at St Bees. A day that commemorated 100 years since the signing of the armistice that ended the Great War. It was a heart-wrenching and provocative sight. While most OSBs alive today have thankfully been spared the atrocity of war, we must be for ever grateful to those Old St Beghians who gave their lives for us in both World Wars. Equally as moving was the Chapel Service on OSB Day when the names of those 184 were read out and a plaque unveiled to commemorate the occasion. A big thank you to George Robson, who has been so involved on behalf of the Society in orchestrating our Remembrance tribute both in the School Chapel on OSB Day and at the Priory on Remembrance Sunday and in personally presenting two plaques to the school commemorating the 100th anniversary of the ending of World War 1 and honouring some of those OSBs killed. With the school now reopen and refurbishment continuing there is much to be positive about.
