Miss Drake retired from the teaching staff of the School
at the end of October, 1943, having completed 32 years of
service. She was at all times a most energetic and versatile
personality. Scholars will remember her for the interest she
aroused, and the pleasure she gave, in a variety of subjects.
Hier colleagues will remember her good humour and her
generous point of view, and will miss her enthusiasm and skill
in all matters pertaining to school activities. She was a most
resourceful ''Mistress of the War.drobe'' ; indeed, at times her
ingenuity in this capacity fell little short of sheer magic.
Colleagues and scholars combine in wishing Miss .Drake
many years of happy retirement. Her address is "Fern
Bank,'' Colney Lane, Cringleford, Norwich, and we are sure
that she will be pleased to have news from the many friends
she made during her years at Long Eaton .
