It was such a fun evening, and we definitely had fun!
I took some time today to read through all the wonderful cards, messages and gifts that were so generously given to me last week on my last day
@GreenRidgeR2
. It was quite a last day, and I am so proud to have been the first Headteacher of this truly amazing school! 💚

A2: We have developed a set of ten things in each year group which are ‘life skills’ - such as setting a table for dinner in Reception, writing with a fountain pen in KS2, making an emergency phone call etc. All skills that are missing from NC.
