An Extremely Well Earned Retirement

The government has paid tribute to an amazing teacher who has retired after 31 years at Onchan Primary School.

The much loved Gill Manley has been praised for her remarkable three decades of dedication to the children, staff, parents, and carers at Onchan Primary School.

To mark the occasion, staff held a special celebration tea, attended by many who had worked with her over the years.

Headteacher Jo Richardson said: “Mrs Manley has been an integral part of our team for more than three decades, working tirelessly to support and inspire generations of learners.

“Leaving was a big decision for Gill, as she has truly loved coming into school each day to work with the children. Her passion and commitment have left an unforgettable impact on our school community.

“Gill, you will be hugely missed, but we wish you all the happiness in your well-deserved retirement!”
