Mr Finnigan

Mr. Finnigan

• Mr. Finnigan is a substitute teacher, employed on a long term period at the school. He is a substitute for Mr Elmer. Demanding respect from his pupils, he is not always successful, since the fact that he is not Mr Elmer is blaringly obvious. There is no soldering iron to back up his beef. Not only does he have peculiar goatee, but he also wears a vest. How we all giggle.
• What makes this man legendary is his punishment of making pupils stay behind after a lesson, yet forgetting why they are there by the time the lesson has ended. He then proceeds to make the pupil remind him as a form of punishment. Once reminded he becomes speechless, mutters something about four leafed clovers before saying don't do it again and pottering off to the land of leprechauns and meadows.

Accident

• In recent times Mr. Finnigan has injured himself up during a disagreement with a local photocopier. This left him with a cut to the head and some reported spinal damage. The copier denies all charges of violent conduct.
