GLOWING tributes have been paid to Marie Conway on her retirement from Scoil Mhuire in Tullamore after 38 years.
Brendan Naughton, Principal at the primary school, praised Ms Conway for her dedication over the years and wished her all the best for the future.
“The old adage 'find a job you enjoy doing and you will never work a day in your life', is familiar to most of us. Our wonderful outgoing Deputy Principal, Marie Conway, bears witness to this truism. Marie was feted this week by the Scoil Mhuire family as she retires after 38 years loyal service to the school,” said Mr Naughton.“Marie commenced teaching in Scoil Mhuire in 1983 and it quickly became apparent that in addition to her talents as an educator, she also possessed a wide variety of interests, which gave her a huge perspective and insight as a teacher and ultimately shaped her natural leadership abilities.
