Students of One Tree Hill College Rotary Interact Club visited Hillary House in March 2018 and they particularly enjoyed a presentation by one of Sir Ed’s old friends, Jim Espie. Jim regaled the group with a delightful story that Sir Ed had shared with him about his first ever garden party at Buckingham Palace, dressed in tails and top hat.
In practising stylish movements with his cane, seems Sir Ed didn’t anticipate that the end of it might detach itself in flight to a nearby rose garden! The students loved this humorous story of Sir Ed and were highly motivated by being in his surroundings, providing thoughtful feedback as they left.
