Per Angusta Ad Augusta - "Through difficulties to honours"

Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882) was a distinguished naturalist, biologist and geologist who many now consider as the founding father of the Theory of Evolution. Darwin observed that animals more suited to their environment survive longer; he argued this was through evolution and a process called ‘Natural Selection’ Throughout his life, Darwin sought wisdom to understand further ‘The Origin of Species’. He personified courage, leaving the world he knew to sail around the world on a voyage of discovery. 

At Samuel Ward, Darwin house embodies the values of the great Charles Darwin, and look to strive for excellence in all we do, no matter how difficult the process might be.

What you construct today, will create our tomorrow

Isambard Kingdom Brunel (9 April 1806 – 15 September 1859), was an English engineer who designed and built railways, ships and bridges. Many of these designs were forward thinking and pioneering, consequently, some of his ideas did not always run smoothly, however he always held true to his beliefs. He is hailed as one of the greatest engineers of all time due to his innovative approach, which changed peoples thinking, understanding and expectations of engineering forever.

Within the Brunel house we strive to demonstrate the values of Resilience, Courage, Integrity, Wisdom and Responsibility.
