Speech of her Majesty in 2000:
Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen,
When I received from Salem an invitation to take part in the opening
ceremony for the Salem International College, I accepted gladly. To my
great regret, however, I have had to withdraw again at short notice, for
the opening in Barcelona of the 3rd International Forum on Microenterprise
has been arranged for the same date. This I have to attend, having been
President of the Forum since its inception.
As an ex-pupil of Salem, however, I could not not let the day go by without
sending you my greetings and my very best wishes for the future. At Schule
Schloss Salem I received an excellent education; it remains with me today,
and I treasure my memories of it. My involvement in the Committee of the
United World Colleges shows how dear to my heart are Kurt Hahn's ideas on
the education of young people, worldwide, in the spirit of responsibility,
tolerance and personal understanding, above the diverse cultures of
different countries, regardless of frontiers. Schools like Salem, advancing
courageously along this path, deserve every encouragement.
I wish all of you, gathered together today at Salem, a wonderful day. And
for the International College, I can hope for no more than that it will
maintain the high reputation the name of Salem has deservedly gained over
the years for a long time to come.
Sophie R.
