33 SHEFFIELD Sheffield has been my home for the past five years and the time has come to bid it farewell. Sheffield has come a long way. While it was filled with highs and lows, Nelson Mandela once said: “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in times of comfor t and convenience but rather where he stands in times of challenge and controversy,” and it was this that proved to be the case with the boys of Sheffield. We lost a friend and a brother. Luke Norris stood for everything that Sheffield and Kearsney boys strive to be; he was a role model and his legacy lives on through the many lives he touched. The matrics of Sheffield formed a close bond – as did the house as a whole – leading ultimately to the success of winning the AH Smith trophy. To Mr Botha and the duty staff, thank you for your faith, trust and service to Sheffield and to the boys of 2012, I trust you will ensure that Sheffield reaches even greater heights.
