Clive you were an absolute legend and friend. You made me believe in myself as a teacher and supported your "A team" to be all we could be. Your support to us was the best. You were there for us during a hard time and for that we are truly grateful. I'll miss your banter, your love and your passion for helping. Rest easy young man. Love, Abby, Mark and Lucy de Groot-McKenzie
