What made the strongest impression at Feldsted was the Music School and the number of people that use it. While St. George's had a good choir, we had no school orchestra at all. One must think twice when a school does not have any form of encouragement to music.

Having now experienced a true dormitory for the first time, I have found that they are preferable because it is possible to make friends with a greater number of people.

[on Felsted's dress code] The idea that we had to wear a coat and tie outside chapel, meals and periods struck me as being much more formed than the usual attire of the St. Georgian, who could be seen most afternoons walking round in jeans, bare feet and a cast-off rugger vest".
