Teaching the youngest learners at the school, Murray’s and my work paths rarely crossed until Friday afternoons where we might have shared a beer or two! Standing on the Green Cap deck used to be a quite a stinky experience but when they started talking about cleaning up Duck Lake, Murray and I were joking that the next time he came to visit we would have our towels out on the grass after a swim in Duck Lake. I think we both thought it would never happen. I still haven’t been for that swim, Murray, but every time I look over from that deck which now belongs to Hulu, I think of you!
This is a place to remember and celebrate the life and achievements of our principal, friend and colleague, Mr Murray Polglase. Please share your stories, memories and thoughts, so we can all see what a positive impact he had on all those around him.
If you would like to share photographs to add to our gallery, then please submit them using the Get in touch link and we will add them to the gallery. If you would like to read the speech made at Murray’s funeral ceremony, it is linked here.
In the future, we will make these messages and stories into a book for Murray’s family, and we know they will cherish the stories, experiences and connections of others with their husband and father.
