Because of exercise and other commitments, the number of entries was slightly down on last year and a field of forty eight players eventually teed-off. Thursday was a cold but sunny day and there was a decided " this is better than sitting in an office " attitude as -layers waited to tee-oft to compete for the DOS BAOR Scratch and RAOC BAOR Spring Handicap Cups, Despite frozen greens for the first hour, several excellent scores were returned. The Stableford competition for the Chatfield Plate was held that afternoon. The weather did a complete about face on the Friday (well it was April Fools Day) and waterproofs were the order of the day. The Bogey competition, played in the morning, is not ihe most popular of golfing events and this coupled with the terrible weather, resulted in rather poor scores. However, the Foursomes Stableford in the afternoon produced some interest- ing partnerships and an enjoyable competition. The Bateson Trophy failed to attract the number of entries it had in its inaugural year but a closely fought battle developed among the top contenders. Last years victors, SSD Viersen "A 1 Team repeated their success by a narrow margin over RAOC HQ BAOR. .3 TRAINING CENTRE GOLF THE results of the Winter Competition are as follows; — LEAGUE: Winner: (11+ points) Lieutenant Colonel Stanley Schofield; Runners-up: (8 points) W 2 Frank Griffin and Sergeant Bernie Hamnett.

Classes are kept small in order that individual attention can be given to each child. No class exceeds sixteen children, The grounds of just over two acres, include a football field, hard play- ground with tennis/netball court, an adventure playground, and a heated outdoor swimming pool. The School is only five minutes drive from Deepcut, and very con- venient for those stationed at the R.A.O.C. Training Centre. The Principal, who is an ex Regular R.A.O.C. Officer, naturally extends a special welcome to children of R.A.O.C. families. Children in the Upper School are encouraged to join the Drama, Art and Music Societies, which meet after norma! school hours. The School has its own Cub Scout and Brownie Guide Packs. • Member of the Independent Schools Association We believe at Clewborough House that the development of the child must include preparation in good manners, courtesy to others, and self discipline. We have taken as our motto 'Work hard, Play hard' and we encourage the children accordingly. |
