September 2013 - Welcome!

A very warm (albeit late!) welcome to all the new pupils and welcome back to existing pupils. I hope everyone has now settled into their new classrooms and the children are enjoying the first half term of the year.

As many of you will be aware we had some devastating news over the holidays, when we heard of Caroline Davies' sudden death. Caroline had taught in the school for 22 years and was a well respected and much loved teacher - she will be sorely missed by all the staff and her past pupils. We send all our very best wishes and thoughts to her husband and children.

The next full governors meeting will be held next week when the annual process to appoint the Chair, Vice Chair and relevant committees will be undertaken.

I wish everyone all the very best for the year.

Christmas 2012

Visiting the school at Christmas time is always one of my favorite activities and the watching the various Christmas plays means to me that Christmas has well and truly arrived! The excitement on the children's faces and the sheer enjoyment they have at participating in the concerts is lovely to see...especially when all my "little children" have grown into grunty teenagers! Unfortunately I had to miss all the concerts this year (due to family illness) but I have had glowing reports from a number of people about how brilliant they were....well done to the children, and of course all the staff who work so hard to make this possible.

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and I wish you all the very best for 2013 and the new term that begins tomorrow.
