Edith Coulthard



A mention here for Edith Coulhard. She assisted Alice Garnett as honorary secretary of the GA in the early 1950s.
She also wrote in 'Geography' about some experiments linking up with other schools and carrying out some interesting project based learning with students back in the 1940s. She wanted students to have experience of learning which would be useful for "real life".

She also reported on a 9 day study tour of Belgium accompanied by Elsie K Cook
