Greetings from Shaun

As another week comes to end, it has been lovely to reflect on how positive the start to the school year has been. Parents, carers, students andd teachers have been coming to see me about how well everyone is settling in to the routines of school this year. Thanks to everyone for all working together to support our students in this.
