Message to friends and members of the Royal High School Club in London

Dear friends,
 
At the Club's recent AGM Valerie Peay was elected as our new President succeeding Al Senter who decided to stand down after three successful years. The meeting thanked Al for his tireless contribution to the Club and for the many enjoyable events that marked his tenure as President.  Al will remain on the committee as our Events Coordinator.
 
Valerie is a senior manager with British Telecom who works in the company's fast-changing internet services business.  If you Google Valerie you will find that she has a presence on many of the current networking sites such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and you might like to see her describing her work for BT on YouTube at 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pW3T0dTqkFk .  Outside of work Valerie is an enthusiastic traveller and she also finds time to serve on one of the London Livery Companies.  Valerie returns to her Edinburgh roots on a regular basis and, while she is up there, she plans to strengthen our links with the Royal High School at Barnton.
 
I am sure that you would all like to wish Valerie success in her new role as our President and I know that her networking skills will be of great benefit to the Royal High School Club in London.
 
Best Regards,
 
Alex.
Hon Secretary.
