Certificate Evening

In December each year certificates and special prizes are presented to old students who left the School in the previous summer.

This year, Maurice Flanagan was invited to present the prizes. Those of us who were at school in the 1940s will remember Maurice (Bud) as an outstanding athlete as well as a dab hand at jazz piano!

Maurice was a pupil from 1941-47. He then went to Liverpool University, where he obtained an Arts degree. He became a navigator in the RAF and joined BOAC in 1953.

After working at many overseas airports, he then spent ten years working in the UK as a member of British Airways senior management. In 1978 he went on temporary secondment to work for the Government of Dubai. He is still living there! Since 1986 he has been Group Managing Director of the Emirate Airline Group.
Maurice spoke warmly of life in Dubai and of the harmonious mix of all nationalities.

He was very pleased to be back at his old school and recalled some of his most memorable incidents, including dangerous encounters in mixed hockey matches!
