FROM THE HEADMASTER Mr Adam Heath
It was more than 25 years ago, but I still recall that the waves were enormous, bigger than any I had ever seen; a huge rolling swell that peaked and then crumbled around a rocky platform. Despite our fear, we goaded each other into action. To hesitate was to lose your nerve, so we plunged into the sea between sets of waves, hastily paddling beyond the break to the relative sanctuary of still water. Catching the first wave successfully only built a false confidence, a sense that these big crumbling beasts had a gentleness about them.
