School House or College


Kit RobinsonGeoff Bisson is surely mistaken when he claims 'the main building has always been known as School House or Cotlake' (OQs newsletter summer 2010 p.9). And to suggest that the house system was ‘a mystery’ to many old boys who experienced it’ is surely not correct. It is the ‘new’, that is 1978, system that is the mystery. During my period (1958-65) the main building was never referred to as ‘School House’ and certainly not ‘Cotlake’. The main building, I think was ‘College’, and Cotlake, as a non-sporting reference, was always only the ‘Junior School’. I enjoyed Bob Clark’s Rock ‘n’ Roll article (p.3). I hadn’t realized that Simon Crawley went on to sing in the Bach Choir nor that Adrian Biggs had died young.
