- Public Description
- A book of memories created to celebrate the life of Geoff Smith, beloved teacher at St. Andrew's College. Mr. Smith worked at SAC between 1964 and 1999, beginning as a chemistry teacher and later the Head of Memorial House. He was a teacher with a rough exterior and many witticisms, mainly directed at any poor boy foolish enough to annoy him. But despite that, he was an extremely kind man who loved the students and loved the school, and soon became famous among students for his many colourful threats and exclamations. In 1998, the New House was renamed to Smith House in his honour.
