I wonder if you could help me to contact some of the people who were there, at Chateau d'Oex, at that time? I knew Sherry Morley well - for some reason some of us, including Sheridan, stayed on in the Easter holidays at the end of term, and Robert Morley came out to stay, which was fantastic fun. I also remember Kathleen well, and "Wol" - Mr Butter, as well ,of course of having very happy memories of the Tuyns and the whole experience I was very sorry to hear that Harry T had died. It was a wonderful place and although I suppose we did do some work, we had an unforgettable and amazing time. Haleh's name came up in a letter from one of your correspondents - I remember her well and would love to be in touch with her if she is in the UK? I am also keen to make contact with my great Swedish friend from that time, Eva (Cootie) Lindh. Also Dorothy Leefe. Would you be happy to pass my email address on to any of these, if you have their emails, then if they would like to get in touch with me they can? I was Victoria (Vicky) Bowring - now Muers-Raby.I do have some photographs of that time - some with Sherry and Dorothy Leefe, Kathleen, Ione Wollaston, Cootie and others, if any of them are interested. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely I have been trying to find out what happened to both Harry Turn and the school at Les Volets Jaunes, at which I was a pupil in 1957:- I Googled both and the result was your website at Sizewell.

Going to Sizewell made me feel closer to God and closer to the people around me and I made new friends. I really enjoyed Sizewell this year was the first year I went and I cannot wait to go again.

J'ai passé trois étés inoubliables à SIZEWELL HALL (1955,1956 et 1957). Depuis les années 1960, j'ai malheureusement perdu toute trace de celles et ceux que j'y ai rencontrés, bien que j'en garde une image encore très précise et un souvenir très cher malgré les longues années qui ont fait d'un tout jeune homme un grand'père. Je serais heureux de savoir ce qu'ils sont devenus. Bienvenue à tous ceux qui pourront ou voudront bien reprendre contact avec moi. "Good morning.

I went newt fishing with my friends and we caught at least 20 newts. The beach was amazing and we went paddling in the sea. I would recommend Sizewell to loads of Christians. I learned a lot about God and Jesus and I feel that I'm closer to them now. Can't wait to go agian next year. I loved Sizewell. I went newt fishing with my friends and we caught at least 20 newts.

It's a shame it is so short a time to go cause I would love to go for longer. It is a really nice place to get away. Can't wait till we go again. xxxxxx from Harleigh I have been going to Sizewell for 4 years and will be my fifth this year with Suffolk Road Church

I wish now that I had inquired further when he alluded briefly to the schools that he had run but he was not a man to be questioned! So I found the brief info on your site very interesting. Harry also implied that he 'knew' Evelyn Waugh when we were studying his work and it is my current U3A(University of the Third Age) research into Waugh and Brideshead Revisited/ Waugh's connections with Madresfield, near Malvern where I live and attend a U3A Literature Group, that caused me to Google 'Harry Tuyn'. I wonder if you know of any further biographical background on Harry Tuyn or indeed if anyone knows more about his contact with Evelyn Waugh. Growing up in Canada, the school system that I encountered was quite different from what you must have experienced at Sizewell Hall School and I am envious of your educational adventure. Many thanks, Beth Payne. Hello Peter,

I was at Sizewell between 1949 and 1954 0r possibly 1955. You might be interested to see this which I only wrote the other day [look down to comments; [forgive the poetic licence] http://intheboatshed.net/2010/12/11/la-pique/ I am fairly certain that Clara Olink [Guys' sister] is second from the right at the top row. Clara, Haleh and Sheridan stayed on after the school closed to study with Harry until they went to University. Brian, I have often wondered what happened to you; I have photos of a very happy holiday spent at your home, taken with my old Brownie. Were we really that good at Latin. Please get in touch. I live in North Kent. I met Guys a few years ago when he was running a charter barge out of Snape. Haleh used to run a restaurant somewhere in Norfolk or Suffolk. I met Kathleen Acheson a few years before that; I dropped in at the Hall and found her packing everything up. Jonathan Ormerod went on to Gordonstoun and became Head Boy. I went to Les Volets Jeune, with Haleh, Sheridan and Clara, where I finally learnt some maths from Henry Butter. I would love to hear from anyone. I have some original, fading Banda, school magazines with strange stories which perhaps others may be able to explain.
