PLEASE
READ BELOW
I have recently moved the boat club web site to www.shrewsbury.org.uk
I have been told that several boys
have been unable to access this site. I understand that all boys
should be able to access this site if their computer is set up
correctly.
If you
click on www.shrewsbury.org.uk
you should
either
go straight to the school web site
or
go to a page which tells you how to set up your computer so that you
can access the school web site and then all of the boat club site including
photographs.

The Royal Shrewsbury
School Boat club is almost unique in being genuinely no more than a
decent stone's throw from the school itself. The school's location,
high on the banks of the Severn (shown below in flood), is the envy
of rowing schools across the country, as is a recently built indoor
rowing tank set into the river bank. Salopians are able to make use
of these facilities all year round: many boys, especially from their
second or third year upwards, make rowing their major sport for all
three terms; others enjoy the sport at house level, either in
regular competitions throughout the Michaelmas and summer terms, or
in "bumps", the Oxbridge-style house bumping races which provide the
climax to the summer term.
