Judge Joe Anderson

Chris George —

Joe is a top Kingsman, fiercely loyal to the school, and an absolute gentleman. He sends his best wishes to the school and his fellow Kingsmen.

Chris George (Chair of the Old Boys' Association) visited Court Judge, Joe Anderson, one of the past King’s boys welcomed into the Wall of Fame earlier in 2021.

Sadly, Joe couldn’t attend the ceremony we held at school earlier this year, so Chris visited him at his home in Invercargill. 

 At 90 years of age, although his mobility may not be what it was, he is still as sharp as a tack.

Joe was delighted with the gifts from the school. The goody bag including the cap, scarf, some lapel badges, the certificate, and the magnificent fob watch engraved by John Bezett. He was impressed with Hugh Kidd's citation and the effort he went to.

Please see Joe’s citation attached: EB (Joe) Anderson – Humanities 1945 - 1949
