Headmaster Mr James Watson attended the Mayor-Making ceremony at Blandford Forum Town Council, proudly supporting the school's MAA (Milton Abbey Alumni Association) Manager, Mr Hugo Mieville, now Mayor Mieville!
Hugo arrived at Milton Abbey in September 1985 as a French teacher. On Bruce Coleman's retirement in 1988, he then took over as Head of MFL until 1999, organising a myriad of French exchanges with schools in Brittany and Paris. He was also Master i/c Football and Damer Tutor. He was then promoted to Athelstan Housemaster from 1991 to 1999. In the 2000s he fulfilled various leadership roles, including Assistant Second Master, Director of Activities and Senior Master. From 2016 to today, Hugo serves as the MAA Manager. He has seen and directed the school from almost every aspect, and outlasted six Headmasters.
During the ceremony, Mayor Councillor Nocturin Lacey-Clarke officially appointed Councillor Hugo Mieville as the new Mayor of Blandford Forum.
Milton Abbey School are absolutely delighted for Mayor Mieville and wish him every success!
