An extract from the school Magazine in 1964 reads.
ROWING
Crews practise regularly on Wednesday afternoons. In the Barn Elms Regatta the
School entered in the boys' events a second light eight, a senior
light four, and one sculler. Although no pots were won it was a good experience
against older crews and the senior eight is still with us this year.
The strict coaching ratio at Barn Elms means that we have a girls' eight and a
boys' eight, whereas all-boys' schools have a first and second eight to choose
from. Harder training by all is needed to overcome this. J. Nation, W. Killick,
M. Martin, C. Bastin, M. Scott and C. Hopkins have trained regularly and Chris
Hopkins also
coxes the Westminster Bank crew.
