Merry Christmas

What a busy week to end a big term!

It sounds like the children did a great job at the cathedral. I would have loved to see them sing, but wouldn’t have wanted to miss Sophie’s Year 6 graduation assembly. It was fantastic - a little sad but really positive and full of smiling, happy, well-educated children! You will have that to look forward to in another 6 years!

I would like to say a big thankyou to all the families of my lovely class. You have been amazing – really supportive of your children’s learning (all those letter-of-the-week pictures you have sourced…) and willing to help when asked. I have thoroughly enjoyed my two terms in Room 4, and my girls have loved getting to know the children, too. It has been fantastic to become part of the school community as both a teacher and a parent, and I am really excited about picking up another class in term 3 next year. I will spend the first 2 terms relieving at various schools, catching up on some long-neglected activities like : housework, gardening, exercise, coffees…. The girls are looking forward to being at home in the afternoons rather than at school, and just cruising a bit more. I know I will miss having a class to call my own, though!

Thank you also for all your kind words, cards and gifts this week. I would like to wish you all a merry and safe Christmas. Indulge yourselves (I will be). I hope Santa and good weather find you wherever you may be.

I am sure I will see you around school next year. Till then, take care.

This will be my last post - thanks for reading!!
