Mr Morriss

Biology Teacher

Music

Mr Dave Morriss is a kick-ass Bassist and has been playing for many many years he own two basses, one of which he built himself (a fretless one). He is also well known to yr13 Biology students as making up the 'meiosis mamba;' a worthless but humorous and noble attempt to make lessons more interesting.

He also bears an extraordinary resemblance to Mr Bean.
