| When the Don visited camp |
Sir Donald Bradman, a keen pianist, visited music camp in 1958. He even lent his 1938 test match gear to his niece and clarinet tutor Anne Menzies (Hazelwood), who put on the kit for the annual cricket match between staff and students. For the record, she took a few catches, but was less successful with the bat: out for a duck. |
