Helen marked 40 years with Deniliquin Preschool earlier this year, which as it turns out will be her last year with the service.
On a warm evening, well-wishers packed into the preschool rooms under the air-conditioning for the celebration.
They came with gifts and flowers, and there were hugs and many memories shared.
Helen began her teaching career at Deniliquin Preschool in 1984 and will be missed by the entire River Region Early Education community.
