It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of Ms. Geraldine Watters, a deeply valued colleague and former teachers of Maths, Science and Biology, Learning Support and later as Coordinator of Transition Year and SEN at St Paul’s Secondary School. Ms Watters retired in 2022, leaving behind a lasting legacy within our school community.

Over many years, she made an exceptional contribution to students most notably as coordinator of TY and SEN. Ms Watters strove to ensure that our students had every opportunity to develop their potential and discover their strengths. Ms Watters dedication to young people, her commitment to inclusive education, and her tireless work in creating opportunities for all learners will remain a lasting part of our school community.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Ger’s family at this difficult time. May she rest in peace.
