An evening spent with Nobel Laureate @georgesmoot among other great minds was a real treat this week. Don’t ask me about the maths! @Harrow_HK pupils and staff being inspired. The importance of broadening one’s horizons was a key takeaway as well.

[Harrow HK Pastoral @HHKSPastoral]

A remarkable evening this week at the Hang Lung Mathematics Awards where Ethan and Kyan picked up their gold award for their paper on the Properties of the Semigroup Generated by the RL Fractional Integral. What a way to celebrate your 18th birthday!

@WellyBenson @TheBensonWelly huge moment at Hong Kong 7s with OW Alastair Bruce (1975-80) and OW Jonny Hopcroft (2011-16) with HM Benson Tom Hicks (2009-2017). Spanning generations of Wellingtonians and watching OW @MadisonHughes15 representing USA.

Excited to be representing @Harrow_HK at the Reader’s Digest Trusted Brand Awards, winning the Gold Award for an International School. #educationalexcellence

‘As a young school, you can really explore what your values and traditions mean…’ Very proud to be contributing to the education conversation on behalf of ⁦@Harrow_HK⁩. #educationalexcellence

[tom hicks @tomchicks]

@drdavidajames and @_JaneLunnon thank you for allowing me to contribute to this. Not sure how you find the time! @Harrow_HK will be pleased to be represented.

[tom hicks @tomchicks]

@WellbeingEduca1 Very interested to hear about your new behaviour system Becky. Have a good rest first though!

[tom hicks @tomchicks]

@TheBensonWelly Congratulations Ben. All the best folk are Catz folk.

@CricketNosh @Swannyg66 @Swannyg66 if you haven’t read this yet, you’re missing out on a snap of two good looking offies in black tie at Lord’s (one last minute suit…)

[tom hicks @tomchicks]

@CricketNosh @Swannyg66 Whole chapter devoted to ‘The world cup of cricket teas’ in my book ‘Bowler’s Name’. I suspect your followers would enjoy finding out more…https://t.co/ClMIPYWtos

[tom hicks @tomchicks]

@CricketNosh @Swannyg66 I won’t reveal who won but for flapjack and egg sarnie fans, you’ll be hooked…

[tom hicks @tomchicks]

@Upp_Chapel Bet you still managed to pop into Marks and Sparks….

Pupil hustings for election to the newly-branded Pupil Dialogue Council ⁦@Harrow_HK⁩ #pupilvoice #leadership

@TheBensonWelly Have @TheBensonWelly actually been sponsored by bensons for beds? If so, I’m very impressed and hope the boys all have nice, comfy, full-length beds as well as 1950s Wimbledon FC shirts

[tom hicks @tomchicks]

I hasten to add my interview and the moral responsibility piece are separate! But another fantastic pupil-led publication by @Harrow_HK pupils. An article about being Mr Hicks’s son, too!

[Ann Haydon @HeadHarrowHK]

This evening I have been fascinated by articles from pupils in the ‘Harrow Times’
Cricket & being a member of the SLT. An Interview with @tomchicks
Do we have moral responsibility?
Would justice be better served in the United States if more Supreme Court judges were women ? 1/2

[Badteacherart @badteacherart]

Me: If monogamy means having one wife, what does bigamy mean?

Pupil: having a big wife?

Great start to Monday😂

[tom hicks @tomchicks]

@GeoffLemonSport I don’t buy this argument, Geoff. In ODIs, runs is what it is all about so one 6 and out is better than batting three overs for 5 singles

[tom hicks @tomchicks]

Very proud and privileged to work here and see my children schooled here every day. The @Harrow_HK community is very special indeed. Hope all the teachers are having a holiday though!

[Harrow International School Hong Kong @Harrow_HK]
