. . . teaching and learning is a state of love

A message from Neil

'Each person is born with the seeds of the most extraordinary interests and passions. The purpose of education is to nurture and feed these and support them into wonderful fruition. Teaching and learning is a state of love.'

Such a wonderful message Neil, thankyou.

And how wonderful that Neil's cup was found by a young person on her way to swimming lessons
