Hi John,
I was at school with you at PGS although I was a year younger, I remember playing table tennis with you , Gilbert Gray, Lional Thomas etc.
I am in Essex at the moment but we still have mums house in Newlyn where we spend most of the summer months. (what summer)
I did not see the article in The Cornishman , but a friend in Hayle sent me your Email add.
I understand that you have written a book ! What is its title ?
I have kept a few contacts in the area there and else where.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Best A. Wright Harvey
Hi J.
I too was teacher . Not so academic as you .
However I attended The Outward Bound School Devon during the 6th form, and it changed the direction of my life. I taught in 3 schools in Bristol and Essex where I ran the Duke Of Edinburgh's Award Scheme also running the Essex Teachers Winter Mountaineering Courses for 10 years, and the Essex Teachers Sea Kayaking Courses for 3 years.
Obviously I was, & am, totally convinced in the power of Adventure Education to change lives. I am not so naive to think Ad Ed is the only way, but from my experience it certainly works with many young people.
Best Wright
