Old Boys > Mr Bjarne Sumelius

In January 2009, we were delighted to have the surprise visit of one of our past pupils, Mr Bjarne Sumelius, who, together with his brother, was at Homefield from 1953 to 1959, when the school was still on the site of Homefield Park. He helped us put names to faces on the 1950s photographs we have in our possession. He remembered fondly his swimming and cricket coaching as he was a member of the Under 11 team. He subsequently had to return to his native Finland where he later became a Hotelier in Helsinki. Now retired, he was keen to make contact with his school and past friends and is hoping to attend 2009 Old Boys’ reunion on 1st July.
