Clitheroe primary school teacher retires after 32 years
Mrs Clark’s current colleagues from school took her on a celebratory meal to the Fence Gate Inn at which she was presented with gifts, a personalised poem and a memory box created by all of her colleagues.
In recognition of such fabulous service the school held an afternoon tea party. Mrs Clark was asked to draw up a list of those which she wanted to attend including ex-colleagues whom she had kept in touch with or was grateful of their support, close family and friends. All of these people were then sent invitations.
