At the end of every term, I write a poem for the children.. it has become a little tradition.. so here we go..
Headteacher’s Christmas poem
When you have a school full of kids, it is so hard to pick. Which ones are kind and caring, which ones are witty and quick. So I have asked the teachers to choose them, the ones who deserve an extra treat, the sweetest ones, the nicest ones, the ones that can’t be beat.
Miss Cahill has chosen Noah. He listens so carefully, he remembers all the facts about the evergreen tree!
Mrs Meredith has picked Rowan, he is engaged in everything we teach, with his positive attitude, nothing is out of his reach.
Mrs Rashid has picked Willow for always being so caring, she is kind to others, loves to learn, she’s also great at sharing!
