14 years is a long time in anyone’s life. And as Speech Days are inevitably an occasion
to reflect, as we sat in Carlisle Cathedral, I found my mind replaying our memories
of Nerea’s time at school. Her “first
days” at both Junior and Senior school with the inevitable oversized blazers, the
professional school productions, the polished musical soirees, sports days and
fundraisers, the embroidered tablecloth I’d sat up sewing, the expedition to
Borneo. But more than anything, I
remembered friendly, happy children. Smiling,
joyful children who’ve grown into confident,
poised adults. And that’s a great legacy
for any school.
