“Miss Olive” as she is affectionately known by many, was the honoured guest on the 8^th November, the day before her 90^th birthday, at the NCVO’s Richard Arch Children’s Centre in the playground of Miss Nadine’s Pre-School.

The celebration was attended by members of the NCVO Board, NCVO Senior Staff, and friends and family including Mrs. Miller’s brother Alan and his wife, and past NCVO CEO Sandie Wilson who were visiting Cayman. Those in attendance were welcomed by Janice Wilson, NCVO CEO.

John Alban, Care Manager of the NCVO’s Foster Home read out a speech prepared by NCVO Deputy Chairman Mike Donnelly which outlined Mrs. Miller’s community work and service.

Four year olds from Miss Nadine’s Pre-School sang “My Island Home” from Olive Miller’s recently published book, “Cayman Rhyme Time” and presented her with cards that they had made.

Mrs.  Miller then uncovered a plaque which read:

This playground is named after

MRS. OLIVE MILLER, MBE Cert. Hon., JP

In recognition of her many years of dedication and commitment

to the NCVO and the community it serves        

In her own words,

“On 8^th November, just at three,

The NCVO Board had a ceremony,

To fete me as their honoree,

And name the Pre-school playground after me.

A lovely Caymanite plaque I unveiled to proclaim

This fine play space will always bear my name.” – Mrs. Olive Miller
