The school year started with the arrival of the sixth form. Every year they do it in style. This year they arrived by train! At least there were no firecrackers, but they were rather wild and noisy..... only to be expected. The parents were all around to cheer their offspring on.
We started the year with a lovely service in St. Andrew's cathedral. Here you can see Babs Owen shepherding her class into church.
This year's theme was about sowing seeds and growth. It is what is in the inside that needs to grow and develop, with nurturing. Revd. Ronnie Irene gave food for thought and a challenge to the students to study well so that they will have a good future. Babs Owen had the kids blowing up balloons and bursting them to find something inside and Mags had each class planting seeds in little pots to see what develops.
Afterwards the children were all excited about going to their new classes and having a different teacher for the year.
They were all fortunate to have a half day off today. The staff remained in school preparing for the rest of the week.
