Adrian Hathaway - Celebrating 39 incredible years in the Prep School 

18 Jun 2026

As we prepare to say farewell to Adrian Hathaway, we thank him for nearly four decades of dedication to Prep School life, in the swimming pool, on the sports field, in the classroom and as Grimwade Housemaster.

From inspiring generations of pupils to bringing our community together, Adrian’s kindness, calm leadership and unwavering support have left a lasting legacy.

It was wonderful to celebrate him at his retirement event in the Memorial Hall, welcoming back family, colleagues, former Grimwade pupils and their parents - a true reflection of the lives he has touched.

Wishing Mr & Mrs Hathaway a happy, well-earned retirement - full of new adventures and free from timetables and meetings!

Mr Hathaway- you will be greatly missed.
