NEWHAVEN COUNTY SECONDARY SCHOOL
Sailing
By Andy Gilbert and Susan Carnochan
In the 1960's and 70's, Newhaven County Secondary School's students and teachers were often to be found at Piddinghoe Pond or Seaford beach with the school's boats, usually Graduates or Cadets. These photos give a flavour of what went on. Did you sail with the school? One of the boat's name was 'Aquila', and maybe one was called 'Speedwell'? Do you remember?
Our thanks go to Susan Carnochan (Sue Butlin back then) for sharing her collection with us.
