Photo: Pam JonesRetiring principal Garry Anderson has instilled the ''three Rs'' in pupils at Terrace Primary School for the past 25 years, but it is other fundamental qualities in pupils that are his real source of pride. As well as his time at the Terrace, Mr Anderson has had an extensive involvement in sport, particularly with softball, in which he played, coached and mentored. The new Terrace principal is Sarah Graham, who is at present the deputy principal at Remarkables Primary School.
