Let the games begin
Who will be the senior and junior champions?
In the Beginning the Cup is captured
When Peter Lawrence discovered that at the end of the summer term 2018, Haslemere Preparatory School was to close, he set about recovering the cup his father had presented to the school on behalf of his eldest son Anthony in July 1963. The cup is called ‘Lawrence House’ and was presented at the end of every academic year to the boy who showed the most improvement.
Cup retrieved, a plan was then hatched between brothers Anthony and Peter to put the cup to good use by staging an annual family competition. Each year, senior and junior champion medals are awarded to the two best performers in events as various as egg and spoon race, build a tepee, design a cocktail, quickers to demolish a hanging doughnut etc. The challenges could be anything within reason.
Photos Please
Help me to document our fun annual get togethers by sharing any photos you take and I will post them to this site. We hope this will be a lovely record of our growing families down the line and the wonderful times we enjoyed together, We hope to gather some of the best images to publish an album for each family to keep.
