Weekly Message from Mr Chaplin (Friday 17th July)

Hello everyone, I hope you are well.

Well this is it, the last week of the school year!

I'm both a bit sad and pleased. This isn't how this year was meant to go and you were all doing so well when Covid struck, but most of you have really grown in maturity and done really well at home during lockdown. As I've said in class before, when things are tricky it can be an amazing opportunity to shine!

I'm pleased that nearly all of the year 6 leavers will be coming into school for one last visit on Monday. I'm really looking forward to seeing you all - even if it will be socially distanced!

I'm sad that I won't get chance to see the year 5s still at home, but I am looking forward to seeing you when we start back for year 6.

Miss Seaman, Mrs Wilson and I have sent you some bits through the post - hopefully they reach you soon! Enjoy and remember, we're always thinking of you and if you need anything from school we are just the other end of the phone or an email. Stay in touch - it's good to talk!

Although we haven't finished the year together, I'm glad we got to spend much of it as a class. Have a good summer and be good!

Best wishes

Mr Chaplin
