Well it has been an enjoyable couple of days and I’m now about halfway through my trip. An interesting development that I found out about yesterday was the appointment of the new Haileybury principal, Mr. Derek Scott. Derek (or Scotty as most people call him) has been the Head of Senior School for the last 3 years (well actually 4 ‘Haileybury’ years if you count this 4B thing). Derek began his Haileybury career at Newlands before making the transition to Senior School. I had the pleasure to ‘work’ with Derek for the last year and he has always been a great Head of Precinct. So I congratulate Scotty on his appointment and I look forward to seeing him in action.
