11/25/2014 1 Comment Losing A Bit Of Our PastNews this week of the passing of Jim Vale in New Plymouth at the great old age of 93. Jim was a great supporter of the College and one of those who worked hard to make it a reality in the 1950s.
One memory of Jim's involvement is the Jim Vale Bat which he presented the College. The bat was given to Jim as a young cricketer by Francis Douglas who was his cricket coach at the time. A reminder of how our past is really not that long ago. Jim and his family can be assured of our continuing thoughts and prayers.
