A very warm welcome to our new Treasurer Russell Page!

Russell answered our plea last term for more volunteers. You may have already seen him around, as his grandson attends Pre-School. I asked Russell to tell us all about himself and this is what he said:

Having raised three children, my wife and I are now proud grandparents of six and support the Pre-School committee for one of them.
My community interests have included being a governor of a grant-aided primary school and chair of a church social club.
Now retired from a career spanning software development, management consultancy, insurance, banking, digital media, higher education, the NHS and biomedical research I now run a property management partnership and engage in garden design & maintenance.
Between these jobs I also enjoy reading, hillwalking and travelling.

Please join me in welcoming Russell to the committee.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Ben Callaway for all of his hard work and commitment to Pre-School over the last 5 years. We really appreciate Ben’s dedication to Pre-School and wish him well in his new voluntary role at Woodcote Primary School.

We are still looking for more volunteers to join our parent committee. If you’re interested or would like to know more, please contact me Maxine Townsend at
