Muscular Christians
The following article recently appeared in a local newspaper: "There was probably no-one attending who didn't thoroughly enjoy the recent 'pub quiz' hosted by the students of KBCTC at the Dean Court Social Club recently. There was only one bible question, and even a devout atheist like me thought I knew the answer! These kids are fun, outgoing and not 'preachy'. What Thomas Arnold would have termed 'muscular Christians' I suppose. Amidst the current public disillusionment with our children's lot, fuelled by the recent UNICEF report (pretty well the worst cared for, worst educated, worst behaved and least happy in the Industrial world) it was hard to equate these young people with the popular view of disaffected youth. Neither was it easy to discern the signs in the local kids happily playing pool with the students and fielding their own team in the quiz. Maybe we are luckier than we realise having these kids living on the Pinnocks Way estate!"
