Celebrating the life of Flo Monaghan

This weekend we received the sad news that our friend and long-term supporter of Castle Academy has passed away. Mrs Monaghan started volunteering when Castle Academy was still Station Road Primary School and quickly became part of the family. Her common-sense approach made her a great friend to children and adults. When I joined the school 3 years ago, she made me very welcome and made me smile during challenging times. One of my favourite moments was when Miss Blagden awarded Mrs Monaghan with our Castle Community Award. Even the repeated lockdowns did not stop Flo as the staff made drop offs of laminating and cutting!

We will all miss her and she will remain a Castle legend.

Her family has asked that no flowers be sent but they would like donations to be added here so that they can fund craft making resources for the school and a commemorative bench.

Thank you for your support.

Mrs Mason
