Stephen Holt marked his retirement from St Charles Borromeo Catholic Primary School, Weybridge, with Mass, celebrated by Fr Con Foley.
It was a beautiful celebration with a church full with past and present staff and governors, pupils, parents, deanery, trust and diocesan colleagues and Stephen’s family, all gathered to recognise 20 years of outstanding service to the school and parish community as Headteacher.
Stephen was presented with a diocesan certificate and medal to mark his contribution to Catholic education. Warm tributes were paid by all gathered, and the pupils sang a specially adapted song in recognition of his exceptional leadership.
