What influence has Lancing had on your life?
Lancing made me adaptable to any kind of environment, increased my interpersonal skills, and most importantly consolidated my belief that everything in life is learnable.
What hobbies or interests did you pick up during your time at Lancing?
I was involved in the rock band workshops on Thursday evenings where I enjoyed playing the guitar with my pals. My interests (which evolved into my passion) in languages were intensified during my time at Lancing as well. The Modern Foreign Languages department is amazing at Lancing.
Are you still in touch with people you met at Lancing?
Yes, I am, including teachers who taught me. I have been able to reconnect with many more people since I went to one of the OL events in London.
What OL activities have you taken part in since you left (i.e. OL sports events, Business Networks etc.)?
An OL event in Embankment in London in 2022. It was so lovely to see some old faces and learn how well they are doing. I would definitely like to take part in more of those events in the future.
What advice would you give to a new pupil who is about to start at Lancing?
Make the most of teachers’ clinics. Don’t worry too much about being homesick. Other students who you’ll befriend will make you feel like Lancing is your second home.
