“Liz has been an incredibly popular figure at Gorsley Goffs over the years, and is always inundated with flowers and gifts, along with grateful thanks from children and parents. I will miss everyone greatly, but will certainly keep in touch.”Ĭllr Ange Tyler, Cabinet member for Housing, regulatory services and community safety, said: Liz said: “Gorsley Goffs School has been a big part of my life for many years. Liz has also volunteered at the school for a number of years, whether it be helping the children in the classroom, keeping staff supplied with milk, tea and coffee, or helping to keep the school entrance safe by putting out parking pals, the child-like signs used to encourage parents to park considerately. Liz works on a busy crossing but she has been there without fail, rain or shine, week in and week out. She was presented with a 25 year service badge and a bunch of flowers. Elizabeth ‘Liz’ Fishpool started work as school crossing patrol officer for Gorsley Goffs Primary School in 1996, and has been a mainstay ever since.Īfter a quarter of a century, Liz has decided to enjoy her well-earned retirement as of the end of this school term, and Gorsley Goffs held a special assembly last week (Wednesday 15 December) to acknowledge her work in getting children and parents to and from school safely.
