COMMUNITY NOTES: ERRIS - WESTERN PEOPLE (DECEMBER 31 EDITION)
Staff and students at Our Lady’s Secondary School in Belmullet gathered recently to honour an incredible member of the school community, Robin Turner, as he embarks on a well-deserved retirement.
Since 1995, Rob has been a cornerstone of the school, dedicating his time and energy to roles as diverse as PE teacher, soccer coach, special needs assistant, mentor, and friend. Rob’s unwavering commitment to the students has left an indelible mark. As a special needs assistant, his patience, kindness, and advocacy transformed the lives of many, ensuring every student felt valued, supported, and included.
As a football coach, Rob taught the students much more than the game of soccer itself - he instilled lessons of teamwork, resilience, and sportsmanship. The victories achieved under his leadership were not just in trophies but in personal growth, lasting friendships, and cherished memories that students still carry with them always.
Thank you for 28 remarkable years, Rob! The school wishes you all the best in this exciting new chapter of your life.
