Goodbye Mrs Sagar ...
Fiona Sagar left St Dominic`s on 2nd December to become a foster carer for young children. Fiona devoted 25 years to the life of our school and has been an integral part in the shaping of young minds within the foundation stage. Her role extended out into the life of the community and she was fundamental in building those important relationships between school, home and the parishes. Fiona will be greatly missed by us all and I am sure you join with us in wishing her well in her new role.
