Agnes Retires

Agnes Dick retired today after nearly 16 years as caretaker within Shotts Family Learning Centre.

Agnes started within Shotts Family Learning Centre on October 1999 and has been an integral member of the team.  She will  be sadly missed by staff, parents and children.

To mark her retirement  children and staff decorated the nursery and had a party to thank her for her kindness, hardwork and dedication over the years.

We wish her well on the next chapter of her learning journey
