Talk:Victoria College, Jersey

message: The article describes it as a plaque, but this may give the wrong impression as it is made of granite and quite substantial. (Fdsdh1 (talk) 02:28, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

message: An anonymous entry was made and removed regarding accusations of the scandal of A.J. Dykes in the 1990s. While the tone was polemic and angry, the latter is historical fact, and I have reworded and reinserted a paragraph regarding that with a source to the legal case, which details out the facts of the matter, and is public domain. As this occured over a seven year period, that is substantial to require a note.

message: For your information, as an ex-pupil, please note that the statue of Sir Galahad is no longer outside the 6th form common room. The statue remains where it was, in the quadrangle, but the common room itself has been moved to the old Art Dept. building after the completion of the Joint Art, Design and Technology centre with Jersey College for Girls.
Regards,
AGS
Would you know the number / name of the room which was the common room, so this can be adjusted?

message: I came across this by a Latin scholar: 
Amat victoria curam means literally "Victory loves the care", that is "Victory likes careful preparation" or more loosely "Victory favours those who take pains", since victory falls to those who prepare it carefully. 
Does anyone have any record of the motto and its translation in any early school documents, so that the appropriate translation can be checked? When was the first time it was rendered in English?

message: "In the summer, boater hat's are often worn to formal events."
Certainly this was NOT the case in the late 1960s, early 1970s. If it is a new tradition, when was it introduced? Or was it an old one which went out of fashion and came back?

message: The article currently says the prep school was established in 1966, but Jersey Heritage has images going back to at least 1947, and in October 2022 there was a tweet celebrating the school's 100th anniversary, so presumably it was founded in 1922? It seems the school was first based at Mount Pleasant House, but moved to its current location in 1966, hence the confusion.  Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 20:23, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
