MRS MAGGIE CORBIN

We were very sad to hear of the death of Mrs Corbin (Miss Walker) earlier this month at the age of 95. She died at a nursing home in Harrogate, having moved there to be nearer her sister after the death of her husband, Harold Corbin.

She taught Art at Varndean from 1949 until her retirement in 1980 and was Head of Department. Many will remember her beautiful italic handwriting, a skill she also taught to students, as well as her contribution to the production of the annual Varndean Chronicle.

Varndean would like to send the school's sympathy to her sister.

A BIG thank you to our brillant staff for a great day out. 1300 students on a day out and another day to be proud of our wonderful students. Coach drivers commented on how polite and mature our students were and told us it was a pleasure to drive them. Happy half-term! #proud
