Errol's tenth home! 1926
01
Nov
After Hobart State High School his father managed
to enroll Errol in one
of the most prestigious schools of Australia. Maybe his father heard
of the saying “It does not matter
where one starts but it matters where one finishes!”
Errol started at
Shore, Sydney Church of England Grammar
School (SCEGS) in March 1926, his entrance
number was 3955, but by the end of the same year Errol was
dismissed from this school too and thus
ending his formal
education. His name was
removed from the school attendance listing.
I
will show in the Reply section more
picture of the school in order for our readers to
see where Errol roamed in this his final
school year.

his mother resided
long
stretches at the time,
even years in
Europe with Errol's sister
Rosemary.

Moderation is in place again due to recent spamming
01
Nov
Hopefully, this will not be too disruptive for us! Spammers do not seem to realize that their comments will not be indexed, and get removed as soon as I see them. If they went to blogs where they could make decent comments about an appropriate subject their comments might stay in place but we tend to get the same trolls actively setting down links over and over again which is a huge waste of their time and mine…
Some of your comments may get caught in this spam moderation trap, most will not. I will still be dealing with spam that get through. I wish it was simpler than this! When we move the blog we will supposedly have more control over this!

William Tell Script

Mr Fegerl wishes to share the attached pages from the William Tell script with you. They basically trace the tragic role of Maria, played by Austrian actress Waltraut Haas. Please note: Mr Fegerl is not in possession of the entire script. Hope you enjoy.
P.S. I scanned and corrected the pages, sorry if I overlooked any mistakes. There is one hand-written correction which I marked with a different writing.

Errol's seventh home! 1923 – 1924

I hope Inga you give me permission
to use your picture, it
is such a nice picture and
so much better than the one I have! Inga took this picture
end of September, a few weeks ago
when visiting
London
and Errol's schools. I hope you read her great post!
On this address 99-101 Castelnau,
today in the London Borough of Richmond
upon Thames, London SW13 9 and in Errol's time in the London Borough of
Barnes stood the private boarding school named
“South West London
College”.
Errol attended this school
from October 1923 to June 1924 at the age of fourteen and fifteen
returning to Hobart in June of 1924 with
his
father. His mother with
Rosemary spent those years in Paris.
In regards to the times Errol spent at
this
school there seems to be somewhat a confusion in the attendance
record as Errol was apparently close to two years at this school,
maybe somebody has better record of his exact timing.
“South West London
College”
was a minor
public school that has long since disappeared. The school was situated
at
numbers 99-101 Castelnau, which is today a road of many regency villas as seen in the above picture.
