Brentwood Prep Incipe 2019
Brentwood School Preparatory 84 Staff Noticeboard Mr Sealey’s footballing father is honoured by West Ham fans West Ham United fans have chosen Sealey Tower as the name of one of the new centrepiece developments at the Upton Gardens site, paying tribute to the man who scored two of the most important and memorable goals in the club’s history. Alan Sealey was the man whose brace at Wembley secured the European Cup Winners’ Cup with a 2-0 win over West German side TSV 1860 Munich in May 1965. Sealey started his senior career with Leyton Orient before making the short switch to the Boleyn Ground in 1961. Joint-Chairman David Gold said, “Alan was a legendary player for West Ham United thanks to his exploits in our greatest-ever victory and Sealey House will stand as a testament to him as a man, and a player. He made history at this football club and it is pleasing to see that this will be recognised at what remains an important site for all West Ham fans. Alan Sealey’s son Anthony said: “Upton Park was not only the home of his football club it was also the home of our family. Dad’s parents lived in Walton Road, directly opposite the Boleyn Ground. So to have a building named in his honour on the new development is about as fitting a tribute you can get. As a family we are so proud and thrilled that Dad has been bestowed with this honour and would like to say a massive thank you to all who voted.” Mr Kitley’s Marathon On 26th May 2019 Mr Kitley ran the Edinburgh Marathon to raise money for Bowel Cancer UK. After bravely battling through the pouring rain at the start, the weather brightened up to the detriment of his shoulders which ended up chargrilled! By mile twenty, he was feeling the strain but with the support of his family, his son Teddy and a good supply of jelly babies he achieved the time of 4hr 24 min, beating his target time by six minutes. He managed to raise an impressive £2200, and now has the marathon bug and next is hoping to run the Colchester Zoo half marathon. Mrs Ombok’s Swim I swam the 2 mile event in The Serpentine, Hyde Park. My target was to go under 1 hour. My official time was 56:19. I came 116th out of a total of 2134 competitors (both male and female). I came 36th out of 970 female competitors. I came 12th out of the 294 female competitors in my age category. My brother, Tom, swam it in 52:45 - 3 minutes and 34 seconds faster than me. He came 52nd out of a total of 2134 competitors (both male and female). He came 36th (same position as me) out of 1164 male competitors. However, he was 18th male in his age category, compared to me being 12th female in mine. Thus making me the indisputable winner (in my opinion). Sibling rivalry at its best! I enjoyed the experience, enjoyed training for it and have entered again this year. Congratulations! Mrs Challis and Max Miss Frank and her new husband Miss Doran’s Penelope
