The Pre-Prep and Prep Schools were proud to invite Lance Corporal Derek Derenalagi on Tuesday 14 June to our Elstree site to talk to the boys about his remarkable story.

During his time in the military in Afghanistan Derek was in a tragic bomb explosion, leaving him paraplegic. The staff as well as the boys were truly inspired and moved by his bravery, courage and his great belief in hope. His positive outlook on life despite the daily challenges he faces left his audience all feeling extremely humble and in admiration of this remarkable role model.
