Mr Nichols taught me at Holy Trinity around 2000-2003 (if I remember rightly!!!) and was always my favourite teacher — I’m even a primary teacher myself now. I was absolutely gutted to hear of his passing recently when catching up with old friends, I hope that even 23 years later it brings his family some joy that he is still really highly thought of and a part of so many people’s memories & conversations. 

Every lunchtime he’d ask me to write out his certificates because his handwriting was that bad!! RIP Mr Nichols – hope you’re having a great time up there and had some time to practise your handwriting skills!!!!
