As Mr Hussey prepares to pass on his responsibilities, he leaves behind a legacy that will be carried forward by his successor, Mrs Jean Boyce from Norristhorpe. To commemorate his departure, children at Upper Whitley First School presented Mr Hussey with thoughtful gifts including a briefcase, toaster, coffee-maker, and alarm clock. These tokens symbolize their appreciation for his guidance and leadership throughout their educational journey.
