“It was really uplifting to hear OW, expressing how heavily they credit the college with their successes in life, however they define it.”

Our OW callers have been asked a few questions about their time at Wellington and why they decided to be involved as a caller during our telephone campaign which took place in April 2024.

Oliver Knight (Bl 22) is currently in his penultimate year at Newcastle University, studying Archaeology.

Qu. 1 What is your favourite memory from Wellington?

“Whilst I have many fond memories of my time at Wellington, one that sticks out especially is being part of the team that won the NatWest u-15 national rugby cup at Twickenham.”

Qu. 2 Why did you want to be a part of the campaign? What made you want to get involved?

“I wanted to be a part of the campaign because of how much I enjoyed my time at Wellington. I think the opportunity to raise money for scholarships that would allow others to attend Wellington when they may not have otherwise been able to will be extremely fulfilling.”

Qu. 3 Can you tell us a ‘Fun Fact’ about yourself!

“A fun fact about me is that I am absolutely terrified of spiders.”
