From the Principal – Providing experiences where boys shine

At times, I believe, boys receive more than their fair share of “bad press”. Granted, as with all of us, there are occasions when it is warranted. However, there is often little in the way of positive commentary about young men to balance things out. I am blessed to witness young men doing amazing things every day. Please allow me to offer some positive press about the young men of Whitefriars College.
