Margaret Scarr

The Legend that is Margaret Scarr

The Casterton School legend Margaret Scarr kindly agreed to be interviewed on film to share memories of her 45 year career at Casterton (1968 – 2013). Mrs Scarr had many roles at the School including relief housemistress, driver and all round ‘Super Gran’. Over lunch with Will Newman, Margaret imparted the scandalous information that she used to drive Sedbergh boys back to their boarding houses when they had stayed later into the night than intended. We are most curious to find who these Sedberghian boys were…now is your opportunity to be reunited with the kindly woman who rescued you.

Margaret’s full interview is available to watch:

Many Old Sedberghians have sisters, wives and friends who attended Casterton School. Please let them know about the Castertonian Society as we’d love to invite as many people as possible to next year’s Founder’s Day. Please contact castertoniansociety@sedberghprep.org to join
