A remarkable teacher

Jennifer Soicher.

A remarkable teacher and the head of the Nursery School.

She was the life and soul of the Houghton Nursery School. There are very few teachers that I remember and she has stood out over all these years.

These were lovely years, both Fred and I got very involved. I chaired the PTA and we had the meetings here at home in Norwood.

The annual Fireworks evening was fun and Fred used to work so hard to make it a success.

I found this letter in my box today written on the 19th August 1993, from Jennifer, Shawni had been to visit the Nursery School. It was just after my Mom had died and she sends her thoughts to me. I notice with pride her comment about Shawni, 'what a lovely, young, polite lady she has grown into.'

I know.
