|June 04, 2026
CHESTER lollipop lady Pat Markert has just celebrated 28 years of dedicated service.
The school crossing patrol officer has safely helped scores of children cross the road outside Oldfield Primary School in Great Boughton since the late 1990s.
Pupils and staff marked the occasion by forming a guard of honour, lining the playground to applaud Pat as she made her way to her crossing point.
