Hey I found some more WCS promo videos from 198? something and 1990 and 1994, if u want i can upload. Also some House Music from 1986? 88? 90? 1991? (only a few performances) and 1993 - 1998,
This was the Video i watched before attending WCS . To be honest , i hated it while i was studying there .. but looking back now . it was and could have been the best time of my life .. watching this vid again gives me a sad but glad i was a part of it feeling . * if you know what i mean*
and who can forget Digger !!!! he was a tough son of a BBBBB, but he really did care
so want to go back for a visit and see what i can do for the school even in a small way
I was at Wanganui Collegiate in 1964 when T.U. Wells was Headmaster, was in Grey House with Jim Wallace as Housemaster. I remember HEXADS Cricket and Rugby, in fact it was the School that taught me Rugby. I also remember the canings and slipperings ( the latter being mainly for dorm offences ), fagging and the School Army Cadet Unit. These memories are to name a few. I was only there for a year before moving to Australia. The School still looks the same and the tradition is sound. Nice one !!
Fascinating, isn't it: though the Hensman era was vastly different to my antedeluvian times, something of the essence remains unchanged. Though WTF a rowing shell was doing in the middle of the Big School lawn is something of a mystery.

He let girls into the (once) great school...
Ronnie was far better headmaster....Man i still use his quotes today!!!
"Cross Country is 'character building'....."
Massive influence on my life...thought he was up himself at the time, now realise what a great Headmaster Ronnie was......(he NEVER let girls in)

Thats pretty classic, great post. Man Hensman was such a cock, the smiling assassians nearly ruined that school. Long live Wokky and Funga.
