Farewell Mrs Sylvia Richardson

This week we formally farewelled Mrs Sylvia Richardson who is retiring from her position as School Support Officer, a position she has held for almost 20 years. Sylvia shared precious memories of her time at Holy Cross at the Liturgy we held in her honour. Student representatives and Mrs Bernie Baker also shared her memories and gave thanks for everything that Sylvia has contributed to during her time at Holy Cross as both a parent and staff member. Sylvia was ‘clapped’ out via a guard of honour at the conclusion of the liturgy. We wish Sylvia every happiness and send all of our blessings.
