  • The Cambridge University Jazz Club Part 1. the 1950S
    The Cambridge University Jazz Club Part 1. The 1950s Cambridge University Jazz Club Ball, 11th June 1954 Photo under licence from Alamy A Rumble From Below The contemporary photo above, taken at the Summer term Jazz Band Ball in 1954, gives a clue to the atmosphere of live jazz events in 1950s Cambridge. Clearly there was dancing but the gender imbalance in a predominantly male university meant that a lot more of the patrons were standing around drinking, smoking and listening. Michael Winner, Downing College undergraduate and Varsity editor, in his 1955 article in The Spectator [1.] describes a jazz session in the Union Cellars, elaborates on the local and University jazz scene, and stresses the popularity and earning potential of the music. So, it is worth reproducing in full: “THE sound of a jazz band, loud and irrepressible, cut through the drizzle of a Cambridge night and echoed round the cobbled corners. In the cellars of the Cambridge Union, for years a stolid debating society, the bespectacled President presided in red sweater and blue jeans over a jiving, breathless throng. And an ever-changing University had witnessed another change. It happened last week when the Union Society's cellars, long inhabited only by bound periodicals, were opened as a sort of nightclub. True, Oxford has done much the same thing a term earlier, but Cambridge's effort was informally different. There was no Lady Docker, no evening dress, no formality. 'Much more go-ahead really.' muttered the President. Instead, the lights fused, the band turned up half an hour late, and everyone had a thoroughly good time.

With 400 years of teaching and learning experience, The Perse is well placed to look beyond educational fads and concentrate on what makes a great school. No school can be better than the sum of its teachers, and this edition of OP News includes the obituary of the remarkable Keith Symons who created the CCF Naval Section and used it to develop teamwork, communication, leadership, resilience, and independence. Brilliant teachers inspire young minds, and The 02 Perse is fortunate to have so many enthusiastic, committed, and caring staff. Great schools know that talents come in many different 31 shapes and forms. We are delighted that four Perseans have been selected to represent the UK in academic Olympiads, and that Perse teams reached the national finals in indoor hockey, outdoor hockey, netball, and golf competitions. Beneath the headline successes great schools value the achievements of all their pupils emphasising that endeavour matters most of all. Great schools need excellent facilities to maximise pupil learning. We are very excited about our performing arts centre project, and the high class performance, assembly, lecture, exhibition and social space it will create.

  • Senior Newsletter 26 January 2018
    Senior Newsletter 26 January 2018 Dear Parents This has been a rather hectic start to term with mock exams for both Year 11 and the U6th IB cohorts. I hosted a group of Headmasters and Senior pupils here on Wednesday where we had a good discussion about a variety of topics which have an impact on our schools. It is always reassuring to know that we seem to be in a strong position at Gresham’s on a variety of fronts! I have been pleased to welcome a number of parents who have taken me up on my offer to have a meal with me in the School dining room. I have enjoyed their company and thankfully they have enjoyed the food. Please feel free to take me up on this genuine offer. I hope you have a happy and relaxing Home Weekend. Kind regards 1 of 20 Senior Newsletter 26 January 2018 GERMAN DEPARTMENT —Trips to Leipzig and Vienna The German Department was in full travel mode at the beginning of the Christmas holidays, with two trips on offer- to Leipzig, Weimar and Dresden for the IB native speakers and to Vienna for non native speakers in Years 10 to U6th. The L6th and U6th German Literature students spent the first four days of the Christmas holidays in Eastern Germany, following in the footsteps of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. We watched a stunning performance of Goethe’s and Schiller‘s "Greatest Hits", explored the picturesque town of Weimar and found out more about its importance not only for German authors and their works, but also for Hitler’s ideology and the Third Reich.
