They had a leaving assembly for him and a huge picnic on the playing field. Quite a few old pupils were there.

Playpen Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 He's taught my lad over recent years (who himself leaves Rivelin today) and seemed a good teacher. We even had a game of kids v parents rounders the other night with him as referee/bowler, and to his credit he didn't just let the kids win ! Hope he enjoys his retirement.

Rich Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Mr Butterfield eh? Now there's a blast from the past.. I had him as my teacher in the 3rd years way back in the early 1980s, so 20 odd years ago.. Makes me feel old does that.. He was a cool teacher though and a right nice bloke, one of the best I ever had IMO.. Good luck to him in his retirement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeP Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 I was Chair of Governers at Rivelin School for a while in the 1990s, and prior to that was a Governor on both the schools on the site before they became one. Richard is a great guy - I was so lucky to be involved with a school that had great staff and pupils. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
