OF President of Suffolk Show

Terry Hunt (K68-75) had the great honour of being President of the Suffolk Show this year. He said: “My wife Jane and I had two hugely enjoyable, whirlwind days in the sunshine, meeting hundreds of people, all of whom seemed to having a great time. As someone who grew up in the heart of the Suffolk countryside, and first attended the Show more than 50 years ago, to be President is a huge privilege.”

Terry’s role as President of the Suffolk Agricultural Association (SAA), which organises the county show, is for one year until February 2016 – click to see some photos here . Away from the Show, Terry is playing a part in the SAA’s educational crusade, to build greater awareness of farming among today’s schoolchildren. This has included a new initiative called Tractors in Schools, in which more
than 60 Suffolk farmers took their tractors into primary school playgrounds.

In his “day job” Terry is Editor-in-Chief at Archant Suffolk, which includes the editorship of the EADT and Ipswich Star newspapers.
