The Class of 2012

 An end of the school year always has its occasions and none more so than my sons one hundred and eleven year old Jesuit High School.  We have had Prize night, made doubly poignant by the departure also of the Headmaster after forty years at the school as boy and man.

We are yet to do one of the other teary moments, the blessing of the Leavers in a special Leavers Service devised and led by the boys themselves.

Yesterday the Class of 2012 had its last official teaching day, and is now on study break ahead of their external Cambridge based examinations. I thought that the two and a half meter banner, hung from the tower, reflected what they had learned in six years of Jesuit based education, with a nod to Nike!

    Blessing of the Leavers - never heard that term before - but it seems just right. Blessings, indeed.
