From:
Dorothy Ada Taylor (nee Green)Dear Friends,
I have just been reading your page on the website. I have only just
realised that the centenary celebrations are almost upon us.
Here is my story in brief.
I have many connections with Spring Hill School. My mother, Janet Nuttall,
born in 1893, was a pupil. I started in the Infant department at the age of five in 1931 and left from the Junior department to attend the Grammar School in 1937.When I was married in 1951 I taught in the Infant School until I left to
have my first child, Kathryn, born in 1952. Mrs. Whittaker replaced me and later became Headmistress.We left Accrington but returned in 1956 and I had a second child, Donald. He attended the Spring Hill Nursery School when he was almost three---accepted early so that I could begin teaching in the Junior School.
My daughter attended the Infant school at that time, and later the Junior department. I taught there until 1961 when we left Accrington once more.
Although I have lived in Essex, Scotland and Buckinghamshire, I have not severed my connections with Lancashire, and will be there the first week in October when I hope to meet up with former colleagues.
I send my good wishes to you all,
Dorothy Ada Taylor (nee Green)
