Comment from Ron Bullock (Scott 1948-53):
  • Directly behind H.E. Watson, and standing higher than the two other ladies in row 2 is (I think!) Miss Audrey Cochrane. She was matron of Scott during all my time there. Audrey had a great voice and was a pillar of Nairobi Music Society productions - usually a soloist in the oratorios they put on, but I forget whether she was soprano or alto. Soprano I think.
  • I believe George Outram was the first old boy to return and teach at the school? His parents farmed tea up Nandi Hills way.
