It is with sadness that we have to inform the Thomas Gainsborough School Community that sadly, one of our students, William Leonard has passed away. He died peacefully in his sleep surrounded by his family.

His mum has requested that I share the information about his funeral with you. There will be a private family cremation on Wednesday 24th August and then at 5pm there will be a service at Nayland church followed by a celebration of his life at the village hall to which you are welcome to attend.

If you wish, you can donate in Will's memory via the following link:  https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/WilliamJohnLeonard 

I am sure those that knew him will agree that it was a privilege to have William as part of our community and that he truly exhibited the TGS values.

Mrs Helen Yapp.
