Special memories - María Elsa (kneeling) died suddenly last year. She is pictured here with David Huggon and other students on her visit to Colchester in 2018. David remembers her as a “brave and wonderful young woman” AFTER more than three decades, it’s the end of an era for long-serving modern languages teacher David Huggon. The 61-year-old is retiring as head of Spanish at Colchester Sixth Form College and fittingly being replaced by former student Anna Hope. Mr Huggon has taught at the college since 1989 and started teaching mainly French. He was then put in charge of Spanish in his first year and, having begun with just four students, he now has an enthusiastic class of 35.
