Brock was brilliant, I didn't realise quite how good while I was there, but now, 3 years after leaving I have realised. The tutors helped you with everything, and they taught me things I didn't realise that I knew until I needed them after leaving.
They gave me the musical and educational foundations to get through uni and I now have a BA in Music, work as a full time visiting Drum Tutor for Portsmouth Music Service and am about to apply for the Marines Band Service.
You should join the Brock Samba band, its great fun and Dan will teach you everything you need to know even if you've never drummed before!
David, Tara and Toni helped so much in College, thank you, and I'm glad to say I'm still in contact with most of my friends from college!
Thanks Brock!

1983 A Level English Literature and Modern HistoryMy time at Brockenhurst gave me the starting point to pursue my academic studies. I studied for and gained a degre at Sunderland Polytecnic in Social Science and then went on to gain teaching qualifications and have taught Basic Skills in various colleges and schools in Sunderland where I am currently living. I think it was a privilege to study there and I enjoyed the beauty of the New Forest.

1960 Grammar SchoolI live in Cambridge, New Zealand and I am now an Anglican Priest - is anyone still alive who began in Form 1 in 1952?!! I remember being in Miss Graham's class, 1B and Miss Hicks was the Senior Mistress. So much time has passed - it all seems so long ago - where are you all? Heather. Posted Mon 17 Aug 2009 04:56 GMT
