What's the most valuable lesson you learnt in school?
Hi neighbours - Marlborough Boys' College Principal Wayne Hegarty will resign as principal at the end of the school year.
He taught students how to sew buttons back onto their uniforms, encouraged them to get involved with art, and found more creative, hands-on learning styles for the students.
Did your child have Mr Hegarty as Principal? What were some of the most valuable lessons you learnt in school?
