Admissions Handbook 2011 - The Southport School

Admissions Handbook 1
Headmaster’s Welcome
It gives me great pleasure to welcome you into the community of The Southport School. I look forward to
meeting you personally if I have not already done so.
You have joined a great school with an enviable history and strong traditions which stretch back to the
beginning of the last century. The hard work done by generations of previous Old Southportonians in
building the tone and reputation of the School is their gift to you. I know you will rise to the challenge on
maintaining and enhancing that reputation, which you in turn will pass onto these boys who will come after
you.
I wish you well in this new and exciting direction of your life.
Mr Greg Wain
Headmaster

you will immensely enjoy your future time here and leave you with just one piece of advice. TSS is truly
amazing in the fact that it opens up opportunities that cannot be found at any other school on the coast.
Embrace everything that TSS has on offer. Follow your passions, but also, more importantly try something
new. The Southport School has so much to give you; it’s just a matter of how much you are willing to put in.
