HIPPERHOLME Grammar Junior School has a new head teacher.

Sarah Weller (pictured) has taken on the role following the retirement of the previous head teacher, Louise Reynolds.

Mrs Weller, who lives in Brighouse with her husband and two children, takes over at a time when the independent school is marking its centenary.

“I am delighted to take up the headship after a long and happy teaching career at Hipperholme Grammar School,” she said.
