FAREWELL
Mrs Canning our Nursery Teacher in the part-time class is leaving Belmont Nursery at the end of term, I’m sure you’ll join with us in wishing her all the best for the future. We also wish Ms Henry, our Special Needs Assistant and Miss Leonard, from our full-time class, a fond farewell as she is also leaving in June.
THANKYOU
The staff is extremely grateful to all the parent/grandparents who helped us during the academic year. All those who helped with library, on school trips/visits and preparing for Christmas. These experiences would not have been as exciting and beneficial for the children if we didn’t have your assistance. The primary schools are very lucky to be getting such committed parents.
