  • Bristol (Bristle) Boy and the Tailor of Gloucester | Robin N. Welch

    Bristol (Bristle) Boy and the Tailor of Gloucester | Robin N. Welch
    Jul 3 2024
    Born in Bristol as World War Two came to an end, Robin Welch, allegedly the grandson of the inspiration for Beatrix Potter's 'Tailor of Gloucester', John Prichard, has had an exciting life, travelling to many parts of the world and living and working in Europe and Africa during a time of great social and technological change.

    In the sixties, Robin took advantage of the free educational opportunities in the UK and went to grammar school, college and Bristol University, graduating in 1969 and beginning his career by teaching at Bristol primary schools, lecturing in French to adults and selling life insurance.

    Keen to see more of the world, with ambitions to work overseas, he worked in Botswana and South Africa and moved from influential positions in education to senior positions in Africa and worldwide in the fast-developing TV businesses, particularly in the field of acquiring coverage of sporting events.

  • Stars of the Morning - A History of Michaelhouse 1896-2021 | Gary M Ralfe

    Stars of the Morning - A History of Michaelhouse 1896-2021 | Gary M Ralfe
    May 8 2024
    Michaelhouse was described by AM Barrett, in a previous history, as once amounting to a ‘handful of boys on a dusty street in a small town’, a far cry from the magnificent 680-hectare site in Balgowan with a world-class programme and facilities that constitutes the School of today.

    And nobody is better placed to characterise that journey, the transformation of Michaelhouse into a great school with a rich heritage, than Gary Ralfe: Senior Prefect of 1962, Old Boy of stellar academic capability, Cambridge graduate and captain of indus- try, Chairman of the Michaelhouse Board from 2008 to 2016 and benefactor – indeed, a man who has had a profound influence in shaping the modern Michaelhouse.

    Through his extensive research, insight and instinctive love for Michaelhouse, the deep friendships and the unique contributions of many and the triumphs and difficulties of the past 125 years have been made accessible. The crafting of this book, the clarity of its structure and a story so beautifully told has been an immense labour of love.
    Old Boys and all who cherish Michaelhouse are profoundly grateful to the author, as the book evokes a sense of pride in all who have walked its cloisters, quads and fields. In Stars of the Morning he has rekindled a sense of the School’s Christian heritage and the fulfilment of the intentions of the founder, James Cameron Todd. It makes compelling reading.
