Speech Day

Speech Day took place on a glorious summer’s day and we were delighted to welcome the Chairman of the Eastbourne College Charity Council, General Sir Kevin O’Donoghue KCB CBE as our guest speaker. Sir Kevin is an Old Eastbournian and spent much of his working life in the army where, as a General, he became Chief of Defence Logistics and later Materiel. He is currently a dynamic Chairman of the SSAFA (the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Families Association). Sir Kevin kindly presented cups and prizes to the children before delivering an inspirational speech about the importance of following a passion or interest and taking up such opportunities offered at school.  A tasty buffet picnic followed on the fields afterwards.
