Georgia Taylor Brown MBE Opens Fairfield's New MUGA Facilities
Yesterday marked the official opening of the Dr Joan Wilkinson MUGA (multi use games area) by Georgia Taylor Brown MBE, ex-Fairfield girl and Olympic Gold and Silver medal triathlete.
Dr Joan Wilkinson was a local GP and a committed member of the Fairfield Old Girls (FOGA) group and she bequeathed a sum of money to the school following her death. She wanted the pupils to benefit directly from her donation and we ensured that her wishes were carried out. A rose garden on school grounds has also been created in her memory.
