As a practice run for a commemorative photograph to be taken in 2015 to celebrate the School's 500th birthday, we spent most of a morning this week arranging around 200 junior school pupils, 1300 senior school pupils, their teachers and the extensive non-teaching support staff into position for such a snap. Add to the physical moving around the business of issuing, then collecting in order, a bar code for each person, and you have scope for lots of innocent fun. It will be interesting to see whether the labelling of the finished article represents reality.
Good to belong to an institution where such an exercise is well-run and borne by all with good humour - some lads spent the best part of two hours waiting on the staging. The first people allowed off were the kitchen staff, rushing to get lunch ready for the hordes. A great school marches on its stomach, it seems.
