An Inaugural EventAddressing the many complex mentalhealth issues that face young people todayis a growing challenge, both for schools inthe UK, and those on Island. A recent BBCarticle mentioned children having to deal withfamily breakups, bereavement and difficultiesarising from drug and substance abuse, not to mention the obvious pressures they face with examinations and relationships. According torecent national surveys, schools are facing an increasing incidence of mental health problemsamong young people. We are therefore pleasedto inform Old Victorians that Victoria College, inpartnership with Mind Jersey, has organised thevery first conference in Jersey to raise awareness ofmental health issues in children and young people.The conference will be held at the Radisson BluHotel on Monday 4th and Tuesday 5th July. We haveassembled an excellent team of local and UK basedspecialists, and tickets are free of charge. Bookings forPromoting Healthy Young Minds can be made onlineat www.eventbrite.co.uk We sincerely hope that OldVictorians will support this inaugural event.

Throughout the spring term, our students have, once again, achieved tremendous success. A high percentage of our students gained major honours in the Jersey Eisteddfod. Our Under 16 Rugby players reclaimed the Channel Island’s premier schools’ rugby competition, The Lord Jersey Cup, defeating holdersGuernsey Combined Schools in early March. Our 1st XI hockey players secured their first piece of JerseyHockey silverware in recent history, winning the Premier Division title. This completed a significant doublesince our 2nd XI came top of their league before Christmas.

As we move into the summer term, I would like to inform Old Victorians that a number of long serving andvery distinguished staff will be retiring at the end of this term. They include Mr Peter Davis, who has beenDirector of Music for over 30 years and Mr Alan Hamel, Head of Sixth Form, who has been at Victoria College, man and boy, for 35 years. We will also bid a sad farewell to VCP Head Russell Price who is takingup a new challenge as Head of Rouge Bouillon School from September. There will be various eventsthroughout the term to celebrate, and indeed, thank such esteemed colleagues and I would be delighted to see as many Old Victorians at these events as possible. For further information, please contact the school office on 01534 638200.

Summer is Nearly Here!From Peter Keylock, President of the OVA

Dear fellow Old Victorians,

Having safely negotiated “Dinner Season” and my fi rst year in offi ce, it’s time to begin planning for round two, and to consider whether to travel Business Class or Economy for our summer holidays!

Jersey DinnerBeing the fi rst year for a number of years that The Dinner was held on a Friday, numbers were down on previous years, but this contributed to an orderly event despite the efforts of Clive Barton to incite behaviour of a more boisterous nature! The presence of the Bailiff may also have persuaded my fellow Old Victorians to appreciate the tradition and wonderful location in a more responsible manner.

As guest speaker, we were treated to John Henry Falle unleashing his alter ego – Beowulf. It must have been thirsty work, but he ended up wearing most of the alcohol consumed during his engaging routine.

For details of this year’s event, please visit the OVA page of the schoolwebsite www.victoriacollege.je.

London DinnerThe London Dinner coincides with the school’s football tour and it was a pleasure to welcome the boys to this year’s event led by teacher Sam Habin.

Traditionally, some of the older OV guard meet for lunch followed by attendance at the school match against Eton. It was a pleasure to attend both the lunch and the match which saw the school triumph over Eton. The night itself was a great success held at the Montague on the Gardens Hotel. We were privileged to have as Guest Speaker comedian Will Smith who entertained us with some hilarious stories! See p16 Where Are They Now?

This year’s London Dinner will be held on Friday 25th November at the same venue as last year.

HockeyCongratulations to Rathbones OV Victoriana who recently won the Minor Plate, and to Convicts for winning the pre-Christmas Division 1 league title.

CricketAs cricket grounds around the Island are being made ready for the outdoor season, there will be three Rathbones sponsored teams competing this year. As well as the 1st XI and Reserve teams, there will be a Third XI consist-ing primarily of Under 13 players. For further details of how to get involved, please contact Oliver Hughes at [email protected].

On the subject of cricket, congratulations to Jonty Jenner for being voted CI Sports Personality of the Year for 2015 and Player of the Tournament in the ICC World Division Five 50 over competition. See page 14 for more details.

GolfThis year’s OV Golf Day will be held on Thursday 2nd June at the Royal Jersey. For further information, please contact Michael Tait at [email protected].

ShootingThe full-bore season has just started, however congratulations go to Cameron Pirouet and Alex Tucker (both Victoria College) who have been selected to shoot for the Athelings GB U19 team who travel to Canada in August. In small-bore, Cameron Pirouet won the Le Cappelain Shield - Island Junior League Top Junior. Fabien Amy placed 3rd in the Senior League fi nishing the season with his arm in plaster!

SquashThe college courts are available for use outside of school hours. In order to arrange court time please contact Dave Tupper at [email protected]. For further information on any OVA activities, please email [email protected]

Unique Print Signed By The Red ArrowsWhen OV and Group Captain James Hunter, Commandant of the Central Flying School, arranged a fl ypast last year, professional photographer OV Danny Richardson (1995-2002 Bruce) managed to capture this great shot. He also got each of the Red Arrow pilots, who fl ew over Victoria College that day, to sign the photograph across the bottom, turning this in to a unique and precious momento.

To raise money for RAF Veterans, Danny will be entering the original print into a silent auction at both of the OV dinners this year. The second print was given to the school.

An Invitation to Join The Victoria College Choral SocietyThe Choral Society was formed last year in collaboration with the Jersey Academy of Music to bring together students past and present, parents, staff, Old Victorians and the wider community in order to perform with an orchestra and esteemed conductor in the Great Hall. The Choral Society’s inaugural concert An Evening of Baroque Music was performed in the Great Hall on Sunday 13 December with conductor John Bowley MA, ARCM. OVs Elliot Samphier and Finlay Hare were welcomed back to perform along with Soprano Gabriella Cassidy, Mezzo Soprano Georgia Mae Bishop and violinist Ana Vande.

Email [email protected] if you would like to be involved in the next project to commemorate Remembrance Day, The Voices of Rememberance by Laura Rossi. This will be performed alongside an orchestra from Chethams School of Music and Jersey Academy of Music at The Opera House including narration by two celebrities.

Spring has SprungFrom Sara Clews, Development Director

Dear Victorians, Young & Old,

Well, spring has truly sprung, and along with it a series of new developments and celebrations that I am delighted to be able to share with you. Whilst asking you to ‘hold the date’ there are also new initiatives you can get involved with – young or old!

Foundation PartnersIn support of the school’s ‘Lifelong Learning Vision’ it was with great pleasure that we launched the Foundation Partners’ initiative at the end of the autumn term.

Over the next three years Elian, Webreality, Rathbones, Moore Stephens and Quilter Cheviot will play an important role by providing access to topical and relevant advice across a range of career options, support of curriculum subjects and by creating opportunities to acquire skills for learning, personal development and employability.

Full details can be found on the new Foundation Partners’ pages at www.victoriacollege.je. Thanks are extended to Philip Le Cornu, Matthew Robins, Jonathan Giles, David Green and Tim Childe for their vision and generous support.

Careering AlongOur series of Career Dinners and Talks continue involving some fantastic speakers. You can read an

interview with BBC TV Reporter Graham Satchell on page 8 and a re-view of The Power of Connectivity talk, hosted by Quilters, on page 9. Ben Barringer was a dynamic and inspiring speaker. He looked at how careers can keep apace with advances in technology, and his mention of a new data chip, swallowed as a tablet to help reduce high mortality in the dairy industry, was a revelation.

The third event looked at Medicine and Healthcare. Dr Andrew Mitchell brought along two young doctors from the hospital, Rupert Simpson and Christian Collins, who peeled back the layers of decision making and emphasised the need for a sense of humour. Michael Bruggraber offered insight to firstly training as a Pharmacist then as a Dentist. A very big thank you to all.

A Tribute to Howard DavisWe will be marking the centenary of the death of Howard Davis at the Battle of Somme on Founders’ Day whilst also paying tribute to the generosity of his philanthropist father T.B. Davis. After providing the school with the portrait of King George V, in memory of his son who had given his life for his King, he then built the Howard Davis Lecture Hall/Theatre in which to hang it.

We will be re-enacting the 1934 ceremony, involving special guests, before the CCF lead a silent walk past the statue of Sir Galahad. Guests will then attend the ceremony in the Great Hall including presentations of the

Citizenship and Co-Curricular Awards. We should like to extend an invitation to all TB Davis Scholars. Please RSVP to [email protected]

A Literary ExperienceJersey Heritage Trust have invited our students to attend a Creative Writing workshop with Pippa Le Quesne, an experienced editor and creative writing teacher, to produce written work around Howard Davis and his family. Thanks must be extended to Lucy Layton at JHT for such a fantastic opportunity.

GrapeVine ClubAll OVs aged between 18-30 years (who we have contact details for!) were sent details before Easter. The GrapeVine involves keeping in touch, networking and social events.

The fi rst GrapeVine event is planned for Thursday 30 June in the Great Hall, which has free entry thanks to the generous support of Rathbones. This event is ticket only with RSVP to [email protected]. You will learn more about wines then enjoy sampling and networking with peers and meet other OVs. Your Host: OV Daniel Richardson (1998-2005, Braithwaite) is a Lawyer at Mourant Ozannes but after completing his training at Slaughter and May he took a year out to work at vineyards in France and South Australia.

Hold the Date for Founders’ DayIf you would like to attend the celebrations on Founders’ Day, Thursday 29 September from 5pm then please send your RSVP to [email protected]


Onwards and UpFrom Jonathan Giles, Acting Chairman of Governors

Dear Fellow Old Victorians, Parents and Supporters,

Victoria College remains a very special school, with a proud history and commitment to traditional values, but it must continue to evolve and develop to strive for excellence.

Blue Sky ThinkingThe Headmaster, Senior Manage-ment Team, Governors and Education Department have agreed to hold a Blue Sky strategy meeting towards the end of April as a fi rst step towards identifying what is required to further develop the school. Whilst the recently introduced Lifelong Learning and Foundation Partners initiatives are progressive, and will bolster our students’ life and leadership skills, more can and should be done.

The school is fortunate to have students and parents who strongly advocate progress and we will be exploring some big ideas to tap into this desire for continual improvement. The Governors expect to be able to offer a summary of the key fi ndings and implementation plans in future newsletters.

STEM LaboratoryWith continued support of the Lifelong Learning initiative, I’m also delighted to report that the Foundation will be providing assistance for the building of a new STEM Laboratory, which is high on the Headmaster’s agenda for the school. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) is a vital tool to improve industrial competitiveness in science and technology, and the laboratory will provide problem-based learning for our students. By working through a combination of strategies they will discover the nature of a problem, the variables involved, and gain a different perspective. The new laboratory, which is being established

in the Science Building, will also allow students to work side-by-side with industry partners and experts.

The End of An EraFinally, I have to report that sadly Clive Barton recently stepped down as Chairman of the Board of Governors. As both an OV and a passionate educationalist Clive served with great success and distinction from 2005, becoming Chairman in 2006.

He was awarded the MBE in 2014 for his long-term support of numerous charities, education at Victoria College and Highlands and parochial duties.

His decade in charge has seen many positive developments ranging from continued academic excellence to the completion of several capital projects through the fl ourishing Foundation.

Clive’s departure has left a large gap to fi ll so, under my Acting Chairmanship, the Board has recently convened an Appointments Panel to open the search for a successor. We would hope to appoint before the start of the new academic year so should you feel you have the skills or know of someone who would relish the challenge do please contact Alun or myself so we can add you to the process.

In closing, my sincere thanks once again to Clive for his strong leadership and guidance to the Board over the past decade.

The Communication of ArtAn Interview with OV Tim Dalton (1964-1971 Sartorius)

The ‘White Stag’ postcard featured below was found by OV David Le Maistre (1948-1953 Sartorius) who recognised Tim as an old boy and asked Development Director, Sara Clews, to track him down, 38 years after his exhibition in Jersey. When Sara interviewed Tim they realised they had worked together in 2004 when she brought his street theatre act across to Jersey, A Klezmer Cruise, involving an orchestra atop a self-moving, Jules Verne style, ship sailing up King Street. Tim explains what he has been up to in recent years.

Q. When did you first become interested in art?Probably at an age when it is no more than an urge; just an instinct. When I started in the 6th Form this urge began to crystallize into a more conscious need, in my art classes with Robert Tilling, and in English literature with Mr Mason. One day I made the life-changing discovery that I could actually realize paintings and poems myself in an ongoing search for images, metaphors and ideas. I was hooked!

Q. How did the exhibition come about in 1977?I think it was Robert T who put me in touch with the owner of Studio 18. I had just finished my Masters at Chelsea School of Art and I had several opportunities to exhibit my work in London and Jersey. I think the exhibition was called simply “100 Drawings”.

Q. Did living in Jersey influence your style?I think Jersey was the reason for a particular direction in my work. It was not until much later that I understood this direction had a name - it was an ongoing movement going by the name of Romanticism! I was already writing poems in the style of Wordsworth’s Prelude and painting surrealist nature in the style of Salvador Dali. The nature on the West of the Island, where I lived, had an immense effect on me: the colours, sounds, moods, the wind, the ocean...and I felt a real need to capture feelings and sensations when they came to me and to mould them into artistic form that others could appreciate.

Q. What made you move to Poland then settle in France?My adventures into other cultures was a natural development because I needed to find out how other people went about transforming their traditions, history and culture into a contemporary artistic language.

I got a British Council scholarship to study at the Art Academy in Krakow in 1978/79. It was an extraordinary year of questioning everything I thought I knew about art, life and recent history - it was during that year I made the decision to leave the visual arts to make an alternative and vibrant theatre. I spent the next few years working with Polish theatre companies, either in Poland or inviting them to Norway where I had created my own company, Beliashe Theatre, in 1981. The company moved to France in 1989.

Q. Can you determine how you moved from two dimensional art to theatre?I think from the need to have a live audience, to be confronted with their enthusiasm and participation-something much harder to find in a gallery situation. I found such theatre in Poland – Kantor, Grotowski, and a whole world of excellent student theatre. Dramatic structure can be invented with the help of improvisation, music, song. Then, there’s street theatre with its inventions and imagination....like the ship, I made for an open air performance in the streets of Lillehammer, Norway, for the Winter Olympics of 1994.

Q. What are you up to now and what’s next?I am working a lot in the visual arts, and teaching. I see education as the key to raising the practice of art at all levels and as a key to understanding that aesthetic value and enhancement can make people aware of their surroundings, their environment, their creativity and their interaction. I will have had two exhibitions this year: one of paintings and drawings, another of an installation piece (see photo) based on the Ulysses myth - ancient and modern. I am currently working with friends on a version of Grimm’s’ fairy tales. With some luck I will take part in a group exhibition in Norway next year, and I have an invitation to stage something with university students in Assam, perhaps Ibsen’s Peer Gynt...and I keep working in my studio!

ARION1

The Pioneering ARION1 Visits Victoria CollegeLast October Rathbones brought the ARION1 human-powered vehicle and three members of the University of Liverpool’s Velocipede (ULV) team to Victoria College to present their land speed record-breaking bicycle. The team consisted of 16 students from the university, all of whom were studying for a Masters of Mechanical Engineering, and had designed and built the bike.

The previous month the team had twice broken the British land speed record for the fastest human-powered vehicle at the World Human-Powered Speed Challenge in Battle Mountain, Nevada, achieving speeds of 70.6 mph and then 75.6 mph.

Michael Day, Year 13, was doing work experience with the Foundation when the ARION1 arrived so he fi lmed the visit and interviewed attendees. Here is what a few of the students had to say:

Q. What did you think of the presentation today?James Russ, Deputy Head Boy at Victoria College “The visit has now made me consider Liverpool University for one of my options to study Mechanical Engineering. To see the actual physical application here at Victoria College was fabulous.”

Isaac le Breton Year 13, Victoria College“It was a real inspiration to see something so new and exciting that we ha-ven’t really experienced in Jersey before. To see something that has broken a British record that can offer us ideas around a possible future career in engineering was amazing.”

Q. What inspired you to consider a career in engineering?Rachel Hayden, Head Girl at Jersey College for Girls“It all started from a civil engineering competition I entered in Year 10 when we had to build a bridge out of pasta. From there I won an Arkwright Scholarship and did some work experience on Crossrail. That experience and this talk have really inspired me to want to become a civil engineer.”

Tom Smith, Braithwaite Housemaster and Physics Teacher commented,

“The visit was invaluable in terms of exposing Sixth Form students to the kind of engineering projects available at university whilst also promoting STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) to students of all ages. It was a great advert for the University of Liverpool, with several of our Sixth Form students saying they would look again at Liverpool because of the quality of undergraduate projects they had to offer.

The students were able to speak with the Engineers directly and to see how the bike operates. I’m sure the experience would have inspired a number of students from across the Island to consider a career in engineering. As a teacher with a background in Aerospace Engineering, it was a great opportunity to talk to the ARION1 team about the advances in computational fl uid dynamics and its impact on aerodynamic design. A great experience all round!”

Victoria College and the Victoria College Foundation would like to extend a very big thank you to Jonathan Giles and Rathbones for making this visit possible.

Harry Gibbon, Y13 Dunlop, Reviews The Power of Connectivity talk

I am in my fi nal year of A Levels studying Maths, English and History with the intention to study Accounting and Finance at university. With the fi nishing line in sight, and exams being just around the corner, it is very important for A Level students to get a deeper understanding of the diverse opportunities available in life after school/university. The highly successful Career Talks and Dinners that have been held at school, through The Victoria College Foundation, have offered a great opportunity for students to see these opportunities and gain insight to possible career paths. I was lucky enough to attend The Power of Connectivity talk, sponsored by Quilter Cheviot, which brought attention to the quickly developing world of technology and how it is progressively affecting many parts of the fi nance industry. This was an interesting topic for me since I am looking to have a future in fi nance.

The talk was given by Ben Barringer, Senior Equity Research Analyst and Investment Director at Quilter Cheviot, who has 16 years of experience at Quilter Cheviot having graduated in econometrics from Nottingham University in 1996 before joining a graduate scheme at Lloyds TSB. Ben’s enthusiasm and charisma grasped the attention of the whole audience throughout the talk, with his experience and lessons offering not just information about the line of work he is in, but an inspiration to everyone to pursue a career that really interests them and they enjoy. Ben introduced the idea that technology has caused a ‘disruption’ in today’s world, with major companies like Apple having changed people’s lives with products like the iPad and iWatch putting technology into uncharted waters with tremendous effect and becoming a household name across the world. The iPhone, or as Ben called it, ‘The Pocket Computer’, has also changed the ball game for phone manufactures, previously dominated by companies like Nokia and Motorola; smartphones have changed our lives and become something more than a device for communication, they have become a tool for day-to-day life and to some, a fi fth limb, something they cannot live without.

Another example of technology changing the industry is in the form of on-line advertising and marketing, and how websites like YouTube and Netfl ix have made companies steer away from television and radio and move their advertisements to the world wide web where millions of people a day will see them causing a ‘media disruption’.

Ben concluded by showing how it was clear that the industries of the future are in technology, whether that be software, hardware, the internet or advertising, and he suggested that it is a sensible option to invest in these booming companies and franchises since they may just be the next Apple. I would like to thank Jonathan Giles, Sara Clews and the rest of the Foundation team for organising these fantastic events. They appeal not just to the sixth form but to the extended school, and I would recommend to anyone they attend any of the talks they feel may be of interest to them.

This event was kindly hosted by Tim Childe and his colleagues at Quilter Cheviot Investment Management. Our host organised delicious canapés and drinks from Jersey Kitchen. Many thanks to all involved and to Andy Le Gresley who took the photos at the Quilter event.

Career EventsAs part of the school’s Lifelong Learning vision a number of speakers have given up their time to support the dinners and hosted events to great effect. We have worked through a number of subjects since Autumn 2014 taking a look at Law, Finance, Engineering, Marketing and Communication, and most recently Medicine and Healthcare (the latter will appear in the autumn edition). These events offer students from Year 11 to Year 13 fantastic insight to the study paths, challenges and decisions that each professional has taken to get where they are today along with developing soft skills through networking opportunities.

James Jeune, Year 13 Braithwaite, Interviews OV Graham Satchell, Reporter on BBC Breakfast TV

What inspired you to become a journalist?If I’m being really honest about it I didn’t know what I wanted to do when I was at school. I didn’t know what I wanted to do when I was at university. I didn’t do what you’re meant to do, which is to volunteer at the Jersey Evening Post or at Radio Jersey, but I was always interested in the world and the news. I was sort of addicted to BBC2’s Newsnight when I was growing up, and I did work on Newsnight for about six months and was very happy to do that. I ended up being a journalist because my mum sent me a job advert in the JEP and I applied for it and got it, but I’m not sure if I did want to be a journalist – that’s the true answer.

How did you make it a reality?I was just lucky, I did an interview at Channel Television and I subsequently found out they had quite a debate among themselves about whether to take me on. The editor at the time just took a chance and I will be eternally grateful to him for doing that. I think that’s just the way the world works sometimes – you’re just lucky. Part of the reason I got that job was because I had housing qualifi cations, and not many people applied (laughs). But I do love it and I have loved it from the beginning.

What challenges have you faced?The main challenge at Channel Television was not having the fi rst clue about what I was doing. I was terrifi ed and had a massive learning curve on the job. There were some brilliant people who took me under their wing and I was hungry to learn. I was only at Channel for 18 months but I learnt literally everything. The BBC is a very different organisation, because there is a book of producer guidelines that you have to ingest, but that’s just part of the job. I think the BBC is just a place you enjoy, really.

You were forced to end a live broadcast after becoming overcome with emotion at the site of the Paris terrorist attacks, something that was widely reported. How did you feel about becoming the news story yourself?I felt mortifi ed, I was embarrassed. In the immediate aftermath I was incredibly angry with myself – my own view is that it was unprofessional. There was a brief Twitter explosion, which was mostly supportive, but I still feel embarrassed about it.

What has been your favourite interview?I’ve been very lucky to interview some famous people, some heroes. I interviewed Lou Reed once. I’ve always been a huge fan of The Velvet Underground so some things have just been a huge privilege. However, I suppose the more memorable interviews are with ordinary people – I am fascinated by ordinary people who do extraordinary things.

Dinner Date: This dinner took place on Thursday 28 January and involved guest speakers: Graham Satchell TV Reporter BBC; Matthew Robins, Chief Executive Webreality; Mathew Morel, Group Head of Marketing, Sanne; Tristram Colledge, Journalist Jersey Evening Post. A delicious buffet was provided by Anthony Lister and his team from Jersey Potteries. Many thanks to all involved.

Following in Dad’s FootstepsThis series was introduced in the autumn. I am delighted to have learnt of not just one son following in his dad’s footsteps, but two! I hope you enjoy reading about Ian Rolls and his family. If you would like to feature in this series then do email [email protected].

It wasn’t until I was asked to write this piece that I considered I was part of an artistic dynasty! But it is a fact that my son is the third generation in our family to be heading for an artistic career.

A degree in Fine Art followed and a postgraduate qualifi cation in the Conservation of Paintings set me up for a sustainable career in art which enabled me to paint and have regular exhibitions of my own work at the same time as pursuing an absorbing parallel career as a picture restorer, working on many beautiful and valuable paintings by other artists. I worked with an international team of art conservators in Calcutta over 5 years and it was on this project that I met my wife Ruth.Since the year 2000 I have been a full time artist, and have loved the luxury of complete focus on my own creative work. My son Tom, now 19, has only known his dad as an artist, and he has been involved in my various creative projects from an early age, and his own talent as an artist has blossomed with many early achievements.

Following a family trip to Cuba in 2014, Tom & I had a joint exhibition in Jersey of work inspired by our experiences in Cuba. I showed watercolours and Tom showed photographs and the response to the work was great, not least because it was a Rolls & Son enterprise. My father would have been immensely proud!

Ever since I can remember, my father has stood by me as a valuable role model for my artistic aspirations. I believe one of the reasons which encouraged me to pursue a career in the arts has been an awareness of his dedication as an artist. How he feels when he does what makes him happy as a job is something which isn’t easy for most people to fi nd. I respect him for having found that and I am inspired to fi nd it for myself.

I have been successful over the last few years with various art and photography exhibitions and awards, including the Archisle International photography competition, the CCA Gallery student art show and the Barreau art prize. It has opened many doors of opportunity and has given me early confi dence in my work. In 2014, when I was 18, I won the overall prize in the JJ Fox Channel Island open art competition. Having achieved this at my stage in life with over 200 submissions, many from established artists, made me realise I had a chance to make art something more than just a hobby.

Over the past year, I have been attending the Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at Falmouth University. It has been an immensely valuable year so far for my artistic development and I am becoming aware of some fresh attitudes toward art and design. I am now specialising in sustainable product design and know that however my career path develops, sustainability will be a part of what I do. I am truly grateful for my father’s support and encouragement with my development as an artist and I will ensure that whatever I pursue, it won’t be work, it will be life.

Character & SpiritBy Harry Gibbon, Head of Dunlop

For each “House-coloured” issue of the newsletter our student Head of House is invited to review the year and what they would like to achieve in their role.

AladdinNicholas Lawrenson, Head Boy VCP, Bruce

VCP has a strong reputation for the Y6 play and we all wanted to live up to expectations. There was a buzz around school, and much excitement when the title was announced: Aladdin.

Preparations began with Mr. Dixon’s script, full of jokes, and the auditions were soon under way. There was much competition, and choosing the main parts looked like a tough job. There were many varied roles to compete for, from a dashing Aladdin to an old washer woman, dancing zombies, or a grand Sultan. Mr Dixon did a really great job on Aladdin’s story line. There were lots of jokes, and even a surprise visit from Ant and Dec (Logan McCulloch and Ben Pallant).

For many of us this was a fi rst attempt at acting, so there were some nerves to start off with. As we rehearsed and saw that we could actually be quite good, the nerves settled. I think a few boys with hidden talents were discovered. Who knows, perhaps some might be inspired to take acting further.

Finally the big night came. I felt quite nervous, but found that my nerves melted away when I got through my fi rst line without a hitch. I am sure everyone else felt the same. All three nights went off very well, with even a few off-the-cuff jokes from some of the boys. There were lots of laughs and the audience really got into the swing of the Pantomime atmosphere, really getting involved. We felt very proud of ourselves when the fi nal curtain came down, and it had all gone well.

I’m sure anyone who was fortunate enough to attend the House Assembly I gave earlier in the year will remember the quote from WWE Superstar John Cena, “a man’s character is not judged after he celebrates a victory, but by what he does when his back is against the wall.” Taking this quote in context of Dunlop’s year so far, it can be said that our character and spirit has stood second to none.

It was always going to be hard for Dunlop to come back from a fi fth place fi nish in the Blomfi eld last year, but with true Dunlop heart and spirit, we have found ourselves on top of the table for the fi rst time in nine years, a place we aim to stay. With a reliable backbone of School and House Prefects, Dunlop have consistently had strong performances in most sporting events. None so more than the recent Senior House Hockey, where we pulled off a miraculous second place fi nish, despite many of our stronger players being absent. I’m sure that with our fi ery passion, Dunlop can extend the lead and fi nish the year on a high.

Dunlop has also achieved second place in both Drama and Music meaning we stand at second in the Landick and I am sure that with Art coming up soon, we can push up to fi rst and achieve the elusive ‘double’. Special thanks must go to Euan Spencer and Alex Hodnett for their hard work and organisation towards Drama and Music respectively. Unfortunately my time as Head of Dunlop House is nearing its end, but I believe that every story that ends is merely an opportunity for another one to begin, and therefore I am sure that the new wave of Dunlop School and House Prefects will pick up next year from where we intend to fi nish this one, on top.

I started at Prep when I was 7 years old in 1964 and my father, Derrick Rolls, joined the teaching staff there in 1967. He had his own fi fth form, but he was the art teacher for the whole school. Although he was never a practicing artist, perhaps partly due to a very uninspiring art education himself with little opportunity to develop his talent, he had an ability and sensitivity for art which made him a much respected teacher, and an early infl uence on me. He had the most beautiful handwriting and his calligraphic skills were often put to good use at Prep.

I spent most of my last two years at Vic either in the art department or on the sports fi eld, and thankfully both my parents were always supportive of the possibility of my going to art college and on to pursue a career in art, so I was never diverted from the artistic path by a more “fi nancially secure” option.

1962 Guard of HonourIn response to OV Colonel the Reverend Peter Lear’s (1957 – 1964 Dunlop) letter in the autumn newsletter and photo of FM Lord Montgomery inspecting a Guard of Honour in 1961, OV Mike Lanyon (1954 – 1962 Dunlop) dug out this image of himself with General Sir George Erskine inspecting the line up on College Field in 1962. Do you recognise yourself in this photo?

If you have recollections of the time we’d love to hear from you.

Fast Jet PilotWe were delighted to hear the news that OV Flight Lieutenant Matt Pilbeam RAF (2003-2009 Braithwaite) had graduated as a fast jet pilot with the Royal Air Force after six years of training. After Initial Offi cer Training at RAF Cranwell Matt began fl ying on the single propeller engine Grob Tutor before moving on to the turbo prop powered Tucano at RAF Linton-on-Ouse near York. Following successful completion of this training Matt then moved on to advanced fast jet training at RAF Valley in Wales with the Hawk, where he learnt not only how to fl y a fast jet but also how to operate it as a weapons system. Matt now moves onto operational conversion training with the Tornado and Typhoon. Matt was a speaker at the Engineering Career Dinner in March last year and provided a fascinating insight for students into his career.

Lieutenant-Governor’s Cadet TrophyOn Tuesday 23rd February the Jersey Rotary Club de la Marche hosted the Lieutenant Governor, General Sir John McColl and Lady McColl, at a competition for the Lieutenant-Governor’s Cadets. The prize was the Lieutenant-Governor’s Cadet Trophy and a cheque for £1000. Each Cadet presented their goals and future aspirations to His Excellency and the Rotary Members. After much deliberation by the reviewing panel, the winner was declared as Cadet Coxswain Bradley Rose from the Royal Navy Section of the Victoria College Combined Cadet Force. The Trophy was presented by the Rotary Clubs Vice President Mrs Tina Palmer. This is the second time that this prize has been awarded; the previous winner was OV Robert Jones.

Bradley commented, “I was deeply honoured to be awarded the Lieutenant-Governor’s Cadet Trophy. Being in the Navy Cadets has afforded me so many opportunities including attending both the Royal Navy Leadership Course and the Royal Marines Look at Life course in the UK last summer. These courses have broadened my horizons and I would encourage all CCF Cadets to take advantage of the diverse range of activities offered.”

A Loyal AddressOV Chris Brough (1957 – 1964 Bruce) found this ticket from the Visit of Her Majesty The Queen to Victoria College in 1957. From our archives we found the photo below from the occasion of Head Prefect Philip Le Brocq (1949 – 1957 Braithwaite) presenting his Loyal Address to the Queen (as his father had done previously in 1922).

Pip recalls after reading the Address, having to descend the stairs backwards and then bow, always facing her Majesty, as protocol required. He also noted that by happy coincidence, his wife Sally’s father is also in the photo, on the far right in the back row.

The Intruders“I recently saw your piece about the Victoria College ball at the Savoy on 22 December 1965. I was at VCJ from 1961 to 1967, but I was at the ball in my capacity as lead guitarist of The Intruders. The band consisted of me on lead guitar, my brothers Mark and Clive on bass and rhythm guitars respectively, with Brian Skelley on drums (who replaced Peter Filleul) and Mick Rye on vocals. Our ages must have ranged from 14-17 years. I was the only VCJ pupil, and hence the only one who, at the time, had to have permission from my Sartorius House Master (Mr Julier I think) to be out after 7pm in the evening! House Masters obviously over-ruled parents in those days, even though I was living at home and not a boarder.

According to my dusty old band diaries and scrapbooks, we had a busy day as we had been at Channel TV studios all afternoon and played 3 numbers live at 6.15pm on the Now! Look! Hear! programme. We then rushed to the Savoy, set up our gear, and played three sets throughout the evening. We enjoyed it, and I noted that the audience ‘wasn’t too bad’. Our repertoire at the time would have been a mix of Shadows and Ventures instrumentals, and some blues and soul songs of the era. Several of us pursued professional musical careers in the 1970’s, (and in my case it was slotted in between degree and diploma courses in architecture before qualifying), and we still play together occasionally; lots of very good memories!” OV Craig Anders (1961 – 1967 Sartorius)

Phillip Gray, Head of PE. A Tribute by Matt SmithPhilip Gray worked at Victoria College for nearly 40 years prior to his retirement in December of this academic year. It is fair to say that with that length of service all those connected with the college and the many thousands of pupils whom he has taught along the way wish him a richly deserved retirement. Always passionate about his subject he retained a professional and enthusiastic approach to all aspects of college life throughout his time. He worked in the college boarding house prior to its eventual closure and went on to become Head of PE and latterly the senior teacher in charge of Communications and the Co-Curricular programme. Philip’s passion for PE and sport was always evident and the countless hours committed to after school clubs, Saturdays and sports tours around the world have enriched the lives of so many college pupils.

Alan Hamel, Head of Sixth Form. A Tribute by Suzanne JobAlan has been an integral part of Victoria College for 35 years. His heart and soul are part of the school, having also been a pupil from 1968 - 1975. Having known Alan before working at VCJ I knew I would be supported, guided and encouraged to develop in both my career and as a person. His patience and gentle guidance makes you feel capable of tackling anything! Alan treats the students with this same respect. They are given his undivided attention with regards to their future careers and they benefi t from his amazing skills at creating glowing references for each of them for their university applications - he has written up to 100 each year for the past 24 years. No mean feat when boys don’t always understand that the deadline of 15 January is non –negotiable! Alan will be sorely missed by staff and students alike. Photo: Standing to the left of Alan is Ian Rolls - joint Head of Bruce.

Peter Davis, Director of Music. A Tribute by Stephanie HumphriesPeter Davis will retire from his position of Director of Music after 32 years - he has organised and rehearsed the music for 64 Christmas and Summer Concerts, 32 House Music Competitions, and 96 end of term services. He has been a talented and sympathetic accompanist to many students passing through the doors of the Cook Suite, and has remained devoted to all aspects of the musical curriculum. His work with Voce Victoria, formerly the Close Harmony Group, will be fondly remembered after many a spirited performance at College and around the Island. Passionate about Music and the Arts, Peter has fought hard over the years to ensure that the importance of Music in the curriculum is regularly seen and demonstrated via academic achievement and vibrant performances. His commitment, knowledge and patience will be much missed by all.Photo: An Evening of Baroque Music December 2015.

Russell Price, Headmaster of Prep. A Tribute by Dan PatemanIt is with great sadness that Russell Price leaves us at the end of the summer term to take up the exciting post of Headmaster at Rouge Bouillon Primary School. Russell First joined the Prep, as Deputy Head, in September 2009 and became Headmaster in 2011.

His enthusiasm and his dedication to do what is right for the boys will ensure that his legacy stays with Prep and in the hearts and minds of so many boys that have been taught at the school. Staff will remember his kindness, his understanding, and his commitment to striking the balance between school and family life.

Under Russell’s leadership the school has fl ourished and continues to be progressive yet maintaining so many traditional values that are synonymous with the Prep. He will be fondly remembered by boys and staff at the school.

Two Students Selected as AthelingsAlexander Tucker Y13 Sartorius and Cameron Pirouet Y12 Bruce have been selected to represent the UK in Shooting as part of the annual Athelings Tour to Canada in August. Alexander and Cameron’s selection has set a new record for VCJ with it being the seventh successive year of our students being selected. Cameron said “I feel very lucky to have become the youngest member of Victoria College to be selected for this tour and I am really looking forward to competing abroad”. Alex, our Captain of Shooting described his selection as “Fantastic, I have been working towards this for the last fi ve years since I started shooting and feel very lucky to have been selected”. Richard Benest, Master-in-Charge of Shooting at VCJ; “To be selected as an Atheling is truly the pinnacle of shooting at a junior level and the boys should be justifi ably proud of themselves. They have put a huge amount of time and effort over the years into developing their shooting ability and this is the reward for that level of commitment and determination.”

Balls of SteelOn 31st January Bradley Rose Y13 Sartorius won the Balls of Steel race, beating 120 competitors. The race started at St Catherine’s Breakwater and progressed through the woods and along the coast to fi nish at the Jersey Accommodation and Activity Centre. The race is a challenging charity fundraiser arranged by Jersey Adventures featuring six miles of wet, undulating terrain, obstacles, tyres, electric stingers and water dunks. Bradley commented: “The atmosphere on the day was great with supporters along the way. I entered the race two years ago and came fi fth, so it was great to win this year’s event.”

Lord Jersey Rugby Club SuccessVCJ won the Lord Jersey Rugby Cup in March. Founded in 2008 by the 10th Earl of Jersey, the cup was established to promote rugby for Under 16s. This is the fourth time the college has won the cup in its nine years. The cup is a solid silver trophy featuring the Earl of Jersey’s coat of arm.

CI Sports Personality of the YearEighteen year old OV Jonty Jenner was awarded the 2015 CI Sports Personality of the Year at a ceremony in January. Jonty is the fi rst cricketer to win the award following a remarkable 12 months playing for his school, county cricket club and Jersey. Jonty contributed greatly to his school, Hurstpierpoint College, becoming T20 National Champions. He was also a key player for Jersey in the T20 Europe qualifi er including scoring 81 from 34 balls v Norway. He was selected for Sussex 1st XI to play as 12th man at Lords and selected for the England U17 trials. He was Centurion and captain of Sussex U17 and awarded a Sussex Academy contract for 2016. Jonty’s father, OV Ward Jenner, commented “Jonty’s success was obviously great news for him personally, and it is also a great news story for Jersey Cricket as we look to improve our standing in World Cricket; a great refl ection on the coaches who have had such an impact over the years.”

Where Are They Now?OV Will Smith (1978-1989 Braithwaite) began his career as a stand-up comedian. He won Time Out’s Comedy award for 2004, Chortle’s Best Headliner for 2005, and in 2007 supported Ricky Gervais on his Fame tour. As a writer he has contributed to the satirical political sit-com, The Thick of It, in which he also acts, and the American TV satire, Veep. Will has recently written a book entitled Mainlander that has attracted attention from the BBC, and has been described by The Guardian as, “The Wicker Man meets Fargo”. Will has a further three books planned in the series and is also working on a pilot script for Mick Herron’s spy novel, Slow Horses, a crime drama for the BBC and a Channel4 sitcom about YouTube chefs.

Q: Which teacher made the biggest impression on you?A: Peter Fekete, to whom I dedicated my book Mainlander. He also produced the *Revue, so started me off in comedy and literature. Colin Benson had an enormous impact on me, he was the fi rst adult to talk to me as though my opinions mattered, and he introduced me to The Catcher In The Rye, which showed me that books could be more than just adventure stories.

Q: What was your biggest personal challenge?A: I was always pretty shy, but had an overwhelming urge to perform, so just making it on to the stage was pretty daunting. I remember very clearly being backstage at the Howard Davis Theatre, knowing I had to walk out but feeling rooted to the spot, and telling my legs they had to move.

Q: Greatest achievement at school?A: I am particularly proud of the *1988 School Revue, which was my fi rst foray into writing and performing.

Q: What was your worst fashion faux-pas?A: Pretty much everything I wore outside of school up till 1989, when a friend took me in hand.

I just dressed functionally and should add that until that same friend took me to a hairdresser, my haircut was that of a medieval peasant.

Q: Song / album / band that defi ned your school years? A: Dire Straits Brothers In Arms and Love Over Gold, U2’s The Joshua Tree and The Unforgettable Fire, Paul Simon’s Graceland, and the fi rst four Marillion albums.

Q: Which aspects of College helped you to become the person you are today?A: I really can’t imagine I’d be doing what I’m doing without Colin Benson and Peter Fekete, they ignited something in me that has not gone out. Beyond them the school had a wonderful staff of real and eclectic stature (one was a translator from Nuremberg and another helped break the Enigma Code), and my year was full of kind, decent, interesting and talented kids, whom I still count amongst my closest friends.

Q: Favourite lesson or activity? A: English.

Q: If you were Headmaster for the day what would you do?A: The way I keep banging on about them, I suppose I should commis-sion statues of Colin Benson and Peter Fekete. But I would also organise a game of “Pirates” in the gym.

Q: Who inspired your career choice? A: Stan Laurel, John Cleese, Charlotte Bronte and George Eliot.

Q: What advice would you give students who would like to do something similar?A: Do it, don’t delay, but be prepared for a long haul. Trust your instincts, but don’t be afraid of criticism. Accept that you’ll get better with practice and enjoy the journey. And be nice.
