Old Boys’ News

We are thrilled to share some exciting news from the Shore Old Boy community!

In June 2023, two outstanding individuals, Harry Waugh (‘17) and Mark Lovell (‘15), were honoured with Ramsay Scholarships for their remarkable achievements and dedication to their fields.

These scholarships hold the promise of illuminating pathways for students within the School and Old Boys, inspiring them to pursue post-School education on a global scale.

Harry Waugh, a Sydney historian and distinguished University of Sydney graduate with First Class Honours and the University Medal in History, is embarking on a profound journey. He is set to pursue a Master of Philosophy in British and European History at the esteemed University of Oxford. Harry’s focus on allodial land and its connection to Indigenous peoples’ spiritual ties to the land is truly inspiring.

Mark Lovell, a dedicated English teacher, holds dual degrees from the University of Sydney and is completing a Diploma of Biblical Theology with Moore Theological College. Mark’s journey continues with a Master of Arts in Liberal Arts at St John’s College, Annapolis, Maryland, where he will be mentored to secure a meaningful internship in Washington, D.C. His passion for character formation and academic writing education is commendable.

The Ramsay Postgraduate Scholarships, aimed at supporting young Australians in exploring Western Civilization, stand as a beacon of intellectual pursuit and cultural appreciation.
