18.01.2022 I am writing with a heavy heart to tell you that my beloved Dad passed away Monday night and that I am flying home to the UK today to send him on his final journey. I am so sad that I will not get to meet you all after having shared the last several months together getting our 150 year celebration off the ground. Thank you to everyone who has shared their photos and memories with me and given of their time to help ease the load. Please be patient and kind with those that are... left behind to pick up the pieces of the Friday celebration and Saturday fete. They are trying their very best to stage the celebration I have stored in my head and 24 hours is a very short time in which to translate my vision to them. My heartfelt thanks goes to them - you know who you are. I hope the sun shines for you over the weekend and that you enjoy the photos and catching up with old friends. My Dad valued education immensely and would have been proud to see his grand children's school celebrating such an important milestone. Blessings on you all, Verity (P&C President) xxx See more
