Two much loved and missed members of staff, Mrs Joanne Irwin and Mrs Shauna Holmes died unexpectedly within three months of each other before Covid19 and lockdown.

During lockdown, a patio area was built in memory of Joanne and Shauna where pupils and staff can enjoy a little time out.  There is also a vegetable garden which pupils have been learning to tend.

Mandy White, Principal, Grange Park Primary School said,

“I am so proud of our whole school community who have come through an unimaginable year but have always put the needs of the pupils first. This patio area is a much needed and well deserved haven for staff and pupils alike.”
