Biography:

When the school canteen started, Mary Gordon was the cook, but she said it was too much for one person; Bella MacPherson took over the canteen after a few months and was there until she retired. Morag MacBeath m.s. Gillies (Morag Ali Dòmhnaill ) was with her for some years until she had her first child in 1955; then Lena MacLean came to work there.
