Join us for a special event with local historian Janet Lee to discuss her book ‘Teaching the 3Rs, Pioneer Schoolteachers of the Helensburgh District’.
Learn about the interesting life and career of three pioneer public school teachers in the area, Edwin Byrnes at Helensburgh, Arthur Gilchrist at Otford and John Surtees at Stanwell Park. These three teachers enriched the lives of young people and helped shape the community.
