The end of term Mass for St Charles Borromeo Catholic Primary School, Weybridge, was an opportunity for the community of Christ the Prince of Peace Church to join in celebrating the long service of Jennifer Simpson, who was awarded the Benemerenti Medal by Fr Con Foley.

In a message from Bishop Richard, read by Julie Oldroyd, Director of Education, Jennifer’s dedication to both school and parish was recognised and her contribution to the work of education and the life of the Church was highlighted in the citation written by Stephen Holt, Headteacher.
