Farewell and Thank you
We would like to thank Susan Schaeffer Macaulay for all she has done as a founding Trustee of Heritage School. Author of For the Children’s Sake (Crossway, 1984) a book about Charlotte Mason’s approach to education, Susan was inspired in the 1970’s by a small school in Sussex which was based on the philosophy of Charlotte Mason. Shortly afterwards, together with Ranald her husband, she established Child Light, (the charity which operates Heritage School), to encourage Christian education along Charlotte Mason lines. It is in large part her prayers and her vision that are responsible for Heritage opening back in 2007. Susan and Ranald (who remains a Trustee) contributed significantly to the early development of the school, with their wisdom, advice, practical support and presence. For those who might not know, Susan is Mrs Fletcher’s Mother and Grandmother to Maisie and Seth Fletcher – both alumni of the school. We cannot thank her enough for her great legacy and her inspiration as we seek to build Heritage for the next generation.
