I love being a member of the NPS community because...every year I get to make a new little family. We grow, thrive, learn, dance, laugh and sometimes cry together, which makes me a pretty lucky person. At the end of the year even though they move on to their next adventure with a new amazing teacher I still get to keep my eye on them until the end of grade 6, which makes me happy.
