Executive Principal, Peter Cooper expressed his excitement: “Monopoly is part of many of our childhoods and I am delighted that the Sixth Form College has a prominent position on the board along with other icons such as the Cathedral, the Green Dragon and Castle Green. Only a select group of places worldwide have featured in specialist editions and it is a great honour for Hereford and our community that we have been chosen. The day tasks of studying, teaching, enrichment and socialising must go on but I won’t be surprised to see a few impromptu games breaking out in the near future. Now where is that top hat?”
