18th May 2012 - Message from the Headmaster

Dear Parents

A third Battle Abbey baby arrived in the third week of May! This time it was me, who had the opportunity to celebrate the miracle of new life, as I became a grandfather to William, who weighed in at a healthy 8lb11ozs, born very magically on his mother’s birthday.

May 14th will be a doubly special day in my family in future!

In a Centenary year, we are able to celebrate both the past hundred years and the new beginnings at the start of the next one hundred. We look forward, while learning from and being grateful to all that brought us thus far.

On Sunday we will remember our school in a special service in the Abbot’s Hall, led by Father Kevin Taggart, the Benedictine Abbot of Worth. Battle Abbey was a Benedictine foundation and we are very privileged to have Father Kevin with us to lead our worship. We are also delighted to welcome the Lord Lieutenant and his wife for this special occasion.

Best wishes
Roger Clark
