Brian entered the Prep in 1943 and since then has been closely associated with his school, teaching Latin (1958 - 1996), and as Housemaster of Founders House.  After his retirement from teaching he was the ODU Secretary.  

He is currently one of the ODU's Vice-Presidents.

Brian consistently attends the events at the ODU and other ODU events. 

We look forward to many more years with Brian visitng the ODU! 

We wish Brian, with Gill, a wonderful day of celebration with their family. 

The ODA Paul Murray will be attending a function in Cape Town this evening as an invited guest, to honour Brian's milestone year!

Go well Galle!
