Mrs Janet served at St Aloysius Primary School for 33 years and retired in 1997. She taught the first standard students for almost all of her teaching career. She was like a second mother to her students and hundreds of them remember her fondly even to this day. Many of them would often visit her even during her prolonged illness.
