Garth Gilmour (Founders 1976) is now Executive Director of CMJ, an Anglican ministry in Israel that has under its umbrella the Anglican International School of Jerusalem. He is now Chairman of the school’s Board. Interested to find out about the governance of international schools he took time out of a trip to the USA to detour to Nassau to connect with Andy Wood (Gray 1977) who is Principal and CEO of St Andrews International School in Nassau, an International Baccalaureate World School accredited by the Council of International Schools. They enjoyed making time to reminisce and share ideas about educational trends and the challenges and opportunities facing church and international school leaders and governors.

This may well be the first OD reunion in the Bahamas. Has anyone else washed up on the beaches of these beautiful tropical islands?
