# Alumni: Sonia Taylor (Class of 1955)

  ![Image of Alumni: Sonia Taylor (Class of 1955)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/news/Sonia_Ward_Circa_1953_2.jpg)  24 January 2022

We're really excited to be in touch with the daughter of one of our very first Head Girls.

Sonia Taylor (now Ward) was in the first group of pupils to attend Priory when it opened in 1953.  She's recently enjoyed reminiscing about her school days and has kindly shared these photos with us.

We hope to invite Sonia into school at some point during the Spring term and look forward to sharing photos from her visit with you.

On the top photo, Sonia is on the bottom row at the far right.  She's also on the bottom photo, just  beneath the teacher on the left - looking rather serious as apparently pupils weren't allowed to talk at lunch!
