I can not believe we have come to the end of the year! No truer word has been said in jest, when they say time flies when you’re having fun. We have watched the children grow so much this year, not only in size but in love and compassion too. As a staff we have been humble by the little acts of kindness shown to others. We are so proud of you all!
Year 6, it has been an absolute pleasure to share so many memories with you. You are now ready to continue your adventure and meet new people to make memories with. We will miss you all so very much.
Have a wonderful holiday
Good Bless
