Celia has been Headteacher at Sunningdale for 3 years. She brought us up to date with the changes she has been making, particularly with regard to the curriculum. She is clearly a very dedicated teacher who is very committed to her pupils and the school. The hydrotherapy pool is very old and money has been raised to build the first stage of a new facility, with work due to start in the Autumn. We made a donation towards this project and were invited to see round the school after it re-opens in September.

Before hearing our speaker, President Brian Franklin was pleased to present a Paul Harris Fellowship award to Pas President Douglass Dobbing for all his work in the club over many years.
