We’re looking forward to welcoming guests back to our Archive Day on Wednesday 4th May 2022, 4pm – 6pm in the Rotherfield 6th-Form Centre and Wagland Room (Archive Room). Please complete this short RSVP form if you would like to attend.
It will be wonderful to see guests in the school again after the two-year absence of this event in school due to the pandemic. There will be displays of archive material from the decades, a chance to catch up with old friends over a cup of tea and a slice of cake, and chance to hear about our 600th celebration plans from the Headteacher, David Hudson as well as our guest speaker this year, Trevor Saving.
Trevor (Class of 1974) attended the RLS from 1967 to 1974 and lived in Twyford during these years. He captained the school rugby and cricket teams and was ‘somehow elected to be a prefect’. However, according to Trevor, his main achievement at school was meeting his future (and current) wife Carol. Today they have two grown up daughters and live in Kent. Upon leaving the RLS Trevor studied History and Politics at Keele University where he played rugby for Combined Universities and Northampton Saints 1st XV. After University Trevor spent most of his career working for US companies including Levi Strauss, PepsiCo and Marsh and McLennan in a number of international business roles and lived in Dallas, Texas for five years. During the past ten years Trevor held the position of Chief Operations and People Officer at Arsenal Football Club where he oversaw a wide variety of football and non-football related functions. He also served for five years on the board of Harlequins Rugby. Now retired, Trevor enjoys going to Arsenal as a fan and complaining about referees, playing golf, being a member of a military history club and travel.
