She was sent to the school on November 1st 1927 to take the infants class while their teacher, Miss Goss, was away and left thirty three years later.

Her concern for them went beyond duty and her passing will be a matter of sorrow to all those who knew her. On her retirement she went to live with her sister near Swansea and there too she gathered a host of friends who cared for them both.
