OA lunch

St Andrew’s Prep welcomed a number of Old Androvians, Old Aschamians and former staff to OA Day last Saturday when headmaster, Gareth Jones, re-dedicated the recently refurbished pavilion to Dodd Wainwright (former Headmaster 1969 – 1984) and his family.  Fond memories were shared over a wonderful buffet lunch and our guests much enjoyed looking at a superb archive display put together by Chris Laughton, the school’s OA Administrator, which boasts photographs going back to the early 1900s. The display had photos of virtually every attendee as well as a feature on the School’s evacuation to Chaddleworth, Berkshire during the war. This was particularly poignant for one of the OAs in attendance as he had spent almost all his Prep School years there rather than in Eastbourne!  Guests then toured the school site taking in the new sports hall, dance studio and refurbished boarding house before tea in the school dining room.
