A Plea from Noel Broome

"I am a Heath G S Old Boy (c.1945-52, ie contemporary with Barrie Ingham, actor, who likewise lived in Northowram, though I have lost touch with him) and would very much appreciate help in tracing any information regarding my former Mod Language teacher, Arthur Holt, ('Tishi') who did so much to foster my love of French & German literature; he died many years ago, I believe.

I only recently discovered that he wrote poetry, which I would like to know more about, if possible - do you know if there is an archive, or possibly a relative, I could contact?
One further query - if you don't mind! I always understood that the school motto included the words: " Digni este favore " - " Be ye also worthy of favour" - being a pun on the name of the school's founder. However, judging by the school seal on web page this does not appear to be the case - can you elucidate?!
Many thanks for your time and possible help.
Noel Broome"
