Hans Frieling departed

On 17 November, our former colleague Hans Frieling died at the age of 84. Hans was a history teacher at our school for 26 years, from 1960 to 1986. Hans was part of the team of teachers that worked under the first principal, Jan Naeff, and after that under Harry van Mierlo, in the sixties and seventies. Hans was a historian to the core, but he was also a driven teacher and a master of the spoken word. Hans had a way of making the Roman armies march through the classroom. For generations of students he was the typical history teacher. Hans had been a widower since 2009.
