Norman was my housemaster from 1981-85. Coming from Kenya to board was daunting. He made it as easy as possible and was always there to listen to any issues. He even patiently ran with me and a few stragglers on the Downs to encourage us. He was there for all students and was a firm but fair and approachable father figure at Fayrer. We coined the name “Mchele” for him which is rice in Swahili and he was famed in many corners of Kenya! One thing he failed to do was to convert me to Economics! Condolences to Carole and the family. RIP Norman
