Very sad news!
Thank you for being an awesome teacher and teaching us kids what we know today. You made maths fun for many kids who hated it.
Rest easy Miss Brookes, the final school bell has rung

Such sad news. I knew Maria from school days but we had lost touch. She was always quiet and kind and had a smile for everyone.
