Newletters
Some information on how to help your children at home.
It's the final week of school and what a year it has been for us all.
The rooms were all empty,
The toys put away,
This isn't how we wanted your graduation day!
A virus broke out,
We had to stay at home,
But we all knew we weren't alone.
In our short time,
We laughed, learned and played,
We had the best time, and wish you could stay.
But you're growing up,
You're getting so strong,
For you to keep learning - you must move on!
You're going to Year One!
And though we must part,
You will always have a big piece of our hearts!
What a pleasure it has been teaching you in Reception. You brightened up everyday - it was such a shame our time together was cut short. Please continue making special memories at home and we will look forward to seeing you all in September.
With love,
Miss Dinning, Miss Chelmowska and Mrs Kneeling
