I’m particularly looking forward to the arrival of the newsletter this week as I will be able to fully appreciate what has been going on at the School! Normally, of course, I have been swimming in the river and experiencing all the activities which occur but, confined as I am to my house, I have missed out on all the excitements which the week will have brought. Of course I have had online windows into the world of the school - meetings with people sitting in the meeting room, for instance, and I have seen pupils pop in or heard noises from outside in the corridor, but I really have realised how much I miss the comings and goings and the activities which have been going on. Those write ups and photos which Mrs Messenger will send out in the near future will bring it all to life in the most vivid way. I now know what so many of you mean when you say I look forward hugely to Friday evening and the arrival of the newsletter! Perhaps this is the right moment to thank Mrs Messenger for the care she takes over the letter and the colourful ways in which she has so successfully made it her own.
