Started at Brock with desires to go into an Engineering discipline, really enjoyed my time there and the pastoral care provided by the staff whilst going through a rough patch personally - I could not praise them all highly enough. After leaving Brock, I decided to go off into work and not into Uni. After all these years, I am now working for Hampshire Constabulary.

Started in class 1R September 1956, then 3R, 1V2 finally V2. Managed 9 O levels but left in 1960 to train as Marine Engineer.

Subsequently "drifted " into accountancy. Now living in France neither sailing nor counnting. La vie est belle!

Brockenhurst Grammar was a great school and I have many happy memories. I was a boarder at Culverley House. I always remember the sports facilities were great. I was involved in cricket, football and athletics. I now live in Antwerp, Belgium with my own diamond company. Would love to meet up with some old schoolfriends in the future.

I spent eight largely happy years at Brockenhurst between 1965 and 1973. I went on to study History & Politics at Hull University and have since worked in advertising agencies both in London and lattely overseas. I currently reside in Nairobi in Kenya, after over twelve years working in Asia from 1994.

3 years at brock been in retail for most of my working life.

Went on to Worcester to train as PE teacher.Have taught since 1982, first at Peter symonds, Winchester.Since then at Swanmore, then Horndean, then at Warblington.now at Bidbury Junior school Still teaching PE. Married, 2 children, first just gone to uni, second off next Autumn,both going down sport route, but probably not teaching!More opps in sports these days.
still in touch with old friendsfrom xchurch.Live in Horndean, and have done for 19 years.

Brock was a wonderful school: many great teachers (Halliday incomparable, Miss Hicks, Mrs Pearce, Miss Davies,Meredith) and fellow students. I retired from the Chair of Theology at the University of Leeds in 1998 and am still active in research supervision etc.

I think I was head boy in my last year, but I seem to be missing from the record. Perhaps my memory deceives.

I managed to make the last big reunion for the 1962-1969 group, as we all hit 50, and enjoyed catching up. Was there a 60th?

Brock college gave me some very memorable times, with some great people I will never forget, and am still friends with to this day. Inspirations came in the form of David Coggins (music) and Manjit Sahota, both taught me valuable lessons...

Im currently finishing my MEng degree in Aerospace Engineering at Brunel University, and will be moving to Cranfield University to do a PhD. I'm working with Rolls-Royce to research and develop the first generation of all-electric aircraft propulsion systems.

Thanks for all the memories!

As John Dodridge says - many happy wartime memories - have lost touch with many fellow students but still in touch with one who is now living in Capetown. I returned to Brock in 1979 teaching in Business Studies but now retired. Look forward to next reunion in 2012.
