Today is the anniversary of the death of Sister M Catherine
Walsh OP, Headteacher, for many years of St James' Secondary School,
Burnt Oak, London.
Known to both staff and pupils (behind her back) as 'Kate' she
cut an extraordinary figure. Around five feet tall she was almost as
rotund, her face resembled flayed pink leather and her mouth was a gash
akin to a pillar box slit. I am being descriptive here, not gratuitously
insulting.
