We remember going to the DIB club in Phnom Penh one night with Murray, Sam, Sophie and a small assortment of others. We drank too much tequila, we were loud, silly and ended up in the pool in our clothes. Murray was actually sick at the time, he was not at his natural weight. The whole night he had a smile from ear to ear, with childlike cheek. He was kind, caring and always making it about others. This is how we will remember Murray, selfless to a fault … genuine at his core. We believe Murray's spirit lives on through his family, our heart is with them during this difficult time.
This is a place to remember and celebrate the life and achievements of our principal, friend and colleague, Mr Murray Polglase. Please share your stories, memories and thoughts, so we can all see what a positive impact he had on all those around him.
If you would like to share photographs to add to our gallery, then please submit them using the Get in touch link and we will add them to the gallery. If you would like to read the speech made at Murray’s funeral ceremony, it is linked here.
In the future, we will make these messages and stories into a book for Murray’s family, and we know they will cherish the stories, experiences and connections of others with their husband and father.
