Research by Norfolk Records Office has unearthed the tale of how the school got its pupils back learning amid the ruins in a temporary log book written at the time by its headmistress Amy Buckley.
She recalled working on school records on the night of the raid, describing how she “ran through the church yard just before the ‘all clear’ to see whether the school was safe, and found it a blazing inferno – nothing to be done”.

The Willowfield Tavern was not only a fun place to hang out, eat, and have a drink, it was a great place to work. John and Susan Houghton lovingly created a comfortable and collegial work environment where everyone felt like family. I only worked one day a weekâI bartended the dayshift on Sundays back in the mid-â90s, and that became a day where people came by to talk about the issues in town, maybe have brunch, and solve the issues of the day over a few beers. My fond memories of my time there and the people with whom I worked are still with me more than 20 years later.

A former employee for the city of Fair Play has pleaded guilty to stealing nearly $100,00 over a five year period.
Amy Buckley was sentenced to five to ten years for each of her six charges but a judge in Polk County suspended those sentences and she will be on supervised probation for five years.
Buckley was also ordered to pay more than $78,000 back to the city.
Buckley previously admitted to the crimes to Polk County investigators.
Court records say Buckley issued herself 20 paychecks in 2019 from January to April.
