THIRTY former members of Leaden Hall staff met for lunch and a catch up.

They were welcomed by headteacher Julia Eager, and many had to travel a long way, including Margaret Blue, formerly a Year 3 teacher, who journeyed from Scotland.

Jennifer Tyler, who was headteacher from 1971 until 1993, attended the get-together and was delighted to be welcomed by her three great-nieces who currently attend the school.
