TO celebrate 30 years of service as a Whitchurch Primary School mealtime assistant, children presented Chris Johns with gifts of appreciation. The oldest boy James Lamey and headteacher Angela O?Shea-Warman presented Chris with a large engraved crystal vase from Dartington Glass and a card signed by all the pupils at an afternoon assembly. The children also presented Chris with individual pictures of themselves which they made into cards. Angela said: ?She is very dedicated. I don?t remember her having a day off for sickness since I have been here. She does a brilliant job.? Pictured from left to right are James, Angela, and Chris. Picture by James Bird
