Fred Mudd   :   51-61 Physics & Hm. Orwell House

Chris Snuggs: "Fred was a founder member of the school and played a huge part in establishing it as a centre of excellence. I had him for physics in my first two years before he left for Wilhelmshafen. His lessons were the most exciting in my WHS career. French was my best subject but to be honest it could not compete for fascination value with the magic of physics. We did a LOT of experiments with gases, water, electricity, weights and all the rest. I was sorry to see him leave at the end of my second year, but he had done 10 years at WHS and wanted a new challenge, for which I admire him. I have tried to find what became of him at the PRS in Germany, but failed."
