Tribute To Principal J Lloyd Whinstanley

It’s really sad to learn about the death of my high school principal Mr J Lloyd Whinstanley. The news of his death brought back so many memories of my high school days. I am humbled and grateful to have benefited from his excellent leadership. It’s hard to believe that twenty four years have passed so quickly since my high school graduation day. I can no longer reach out to my high school teachers for guidance, but I know that they gave me all the skills I needed to survive in this world. Today the world may seem like a scary place. Economies are collapsing, loved ones are dying, leaders of countries seem to have no answers to our modern problems. But armed with the skills that were nurtured in me from my high school and the confidence that was instilled in me by my teachers, I can move forward knowing that whatever challenges I face, my teachers from Herbert Morrison Technical High School under the leadership of Principal J Lloyd Whinstanley, have equipped me fully to be successful.

Principal J Lloyd Whinstanley

 Principal J Lloyd Whinstanley...even now my mind hasn’t really processed the news fully. It’s just one of those things you never think about. I can definitely say that as a principal, Mr Whinstanley definitely made a huge impact on my life during the time I was a student at Herbert Morrison Technical High School. The quality instruction I received from the academic and extracurricular programs he developed has given me so much confidence up to this day. Thank you Mr Whinstanley for your lifelong dedication to HMTHS, it’s staff and students.
