William Alderson Wilkinson was a teacher of Physical Education and Geography at Boston Grammar School (1930-1970 - part-time after 1968).

Retirement

The Bostonian magazine of 1968 records, in the report of the School sports days, a mention of Wilkinson's retirement

At the end of the sports, the Headmaster informed the school of Mr Wilkinson's impending retirement after - years as games master of the School. Mrs Wilkinson, too, was thanked for her continual support of all school functions, and was asked to present the trophies on behalf of her husband.

The School athletics captain then called upon the school to give three cheers for Mr and Mrs W A Wilkinson.

  • For some reason the number of years for which Wilkinson had been games master is omitted. The figure would be 40.
  • The athletics captain was J N Rayner
