โญ M I S S M A R T I N โญ As we approach the end of term we want to acknowledge the amazing service of retiring members of staff. Miss Sandra Martin has taught at Sullivan for 38 years; many of you will have fond memories of her as a form teacher, her ICT & Computer Science lessons as well as faithfully leading Christian Union meetings and many CU โ€˜Housepartiesโ€™! Miss Martin will be greatly missed by pupils and colleagues and we wish her a very happy and healthy retirement.
