A Fond Farewell to the Rev

Our much loved Rev, Aubin De Gruchy, spent a moving day at Truro School Prep yesterday before he leaves us for pastures new at the end of term.

Having led a chapel service, Aubin then joined the pupils from Prep to share in their lessons, which included Spanish, Dance, PSHE and Art. He also had the opportunity for a question and answer session with the Reception children.

The Rev was presented with a leavers’ hoody and a beautiful stained glass picture before watching a presentation of his day and memories from his twenty-plus years at Truro School.

He told us, “I had the most special day at Prep. Getting to spend time with the children was wonderful, and I was extremely impressed by them and their curiosity about their learning. As always, I was also touched by the staff at Prep. By how engaged and engaging they are with their pupils and how beautifully and carefully constructed their lessons are. I was grateful to receive some beautiful gifts and will treasure those memories greatly.”

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who contributed to Aubin’s special day and to thank him for the phenomenal contribution he has made to the school over the years.
