In 1927 Major R N Boyd Campbell DSO OBE took over the school. He was renowned for his use of the cane. The boys usually got three of the best with “Yellow Hammer”, but if things were really serious then “Whistling Willie” was used! Pluses and minuses were introduced, when the pluses exceeded the minuses by 60, a half holiday was granted. French was now spoken at all meals. Ivy B
