(11/13) Celebrations At Thrush Green
“The Search BeginsTHE FACT that Thrush Green school would soon be a hundred years old had not escaped the notice of Dorothy Watson and Agnes Fogerty, although they were far away. The two friends had retired from teaching at Thrush Green some years earlier, and now shared a bungalow at Barton-on-Sea. Here they enjoyed the sea air, the gentle countryside around, new friends, and above all, each other's company. Dorothy, who had been the headmistress, took most of the decisions, but Agnes, who had ...been in charge of the infants' department, although acquiescent nine times out of ten, occasionally overruled her friend.The subject of Thrush Green's anniversary had cropped up as the result of a telephone conversation the night before.Isobel Shoosmith rang frequently, for she missed her old neighbours and was particularly attached to little Agnes Fogerty, for they had attended the same teachers' training college many years before, and had always kept in touch.It was Isobel who had said that Alan Lester was already thinking about a celebration at the school, and the two friends had naturally been much interested.'No doubt we shall get an invitation,' announced Dorothy as they washed up the breakfast things.MoreLess
