Crescent Says Goodbye And Good Luck To Dinner Lady Mrs Slatcher
23 Oct
Staff and pupils at Crescent School said a fond farewell to one of their long-serving dinner ladies.
Mrs Jane Slatcher has worked at the school for 27 years and will be sadly missed by all the staff, and especially by the children.
After serving up thousands of school dinners, Mrs Slatcher is moving on. She is staying in catering but will be working less hours alongside former Crescent chef Mr Moore. We gave Mrs Slatcher a special Crescent send off this morning in assembly when she was presented with a book filled full of messages from the children and staff along with a gift voucher to spend on her much loved garden.
Mrs Slatcher said the school had been a huge part of her life since she started back in 1996 and that she would miss the Crescent very much. Over the years she has enjoyed watching the children grow up and seen three headmasters at the school.
Joe Thackway, Headmaster, said, “Mrs Slatcher has been a wonderful and popular member of our school community feeding generations of children who have passed through the dining hall. We will all miss her.”
Farewell Mrs Slatcher and good luck!
