In the place of Mgr Ken McCaffrey and Mr Bill Simpson, who are retiring after giving long and valuable service as Church Representatives on their local education committees, Bishop Stephen has nominated two new Catholic Church Representatives to the Dundee Council’s and to the Angus Council’s Children and Learning Committees. Mrs Moira Leck, former headteacher of Lawside Academy and St Paul’s Academy, as Church Rep to Dundee Council, and Miss Lesley Hood, as Church Rep to Angus Council. Miss Hood was formerly a class teacher for many years and then Head Teacher of St Thomas’ RC primary in Arbroath. I am most grateful to both of these good lay women who have agreed to serve the Church in this important way.
