I assume he must have worked with Van Praagh and taken the ideas back to Australia. I wonder how he got to know about it, unless it was through GvP's sister, whom, I believe, was director of the Australian National Ballet.

I can't remember him although he might well have been there in my time.

Curiously a branch of my family left the UK in the mid 19th century and established themselves in Geelong, so he might well have tried to educate my distant relatives.

Van Praagh had fingers in various pies in that part of the world. The exchange was clearly as a master, not as a boy, so I wonder who went out to Geelong.

Another idea that comes to mind is that Geelong has connections with Gordonstoun, with which Tim Law had connections. Perhaps that could be the link.

Mr Potts, chemistry teacher who arrived at CH in Sept 1960 was ex Gordonstoun and CH was his first job out of Uni. Just a guess; I certainly don't remember the name though Chemistry was one of my A level subjects

No, he was earlier: 1950-51.

Mr Healey, a classicist went to Geelong Grammar school in the early 50's.
Veep's sister brought 2 of her pupils to CH c 1952 to demonstrate ballet. She must have been working in England at that time
