Last weekend there was a very special celebration at our childrens preschool. The director of the preschool known by all as "Janie Pops" is retiring for a sea change, she has been at the KU Killarney Heights preschool for 12 years. However, she has worked for KU for much longer than that, having been a student teacher at KU Mosman when I was there are a little girl myself!

Janie Pops is part of the framework of the Killarney Heights community, which is very close knit, so as you can see there was a huge number of families who came to wish her well. One her request it was an afternoon tea with chicken sandwiches and champagne, some beautiful speeches, a special visit from our local clown "Sparkles" aka Tony, and lots of fun for all.

I arrived late just after the speeches had started, as I was coming from photographing a Christening that morning, and was a little emcumbered with a sick child so couldn't move around at will like I usually would. However, the below show the afternoon with the large crowd and atmosphere as a memory for Janie Pops of a special farewell :-)
