It is with great sadness we received the news of the death of Alan Hall. Alan dedicated his whole professional life to the UWC, being the longest serving teacher at UWC Atlantic College in their history. After retiring Alan came on numerous visits to RCN from his base in rural Wales, to help out with Biology lessons and field trips. Alan had always been a friend of Scandinavia and had a remarkable interest for local life in Flekke. Alan had an unparalleled capacity for memorizing, There are many generations of students and staff who will remember him with fondness.

Information about Alan’s funeral will be posted on the home page of Atlantic College.
