The Spring Break is finally here after a very busy week in
school. Although a four day week sounds great I find you are trying to fit five
days work into four so you can feel like you are chasing your tail a little
bit.
The highlight of the week has been the Year 3, 4 and 5
production of ‘Hoodwinked’. It was an excellent show and the children put on a
great performance. It certainly helped the end of term go out with a bang and
everyone who saw it told me how much they enjoyed it. I would like to thank all
the staff who have been involved in putting the performance on for all their
efforts - without it the show would not have been possible. I would like to
also give a special mention to Mrs Lambe who made most of the costumes and who
was assisted in this by Mrs Holden. A lot of people mentioned to me how good
the costumes looked and they certainly helped add extra polish to the
production.
Some more of the classes have also been horse riding and
this event has certainly been a huge success and a hit with the children. I do
not think that I have spoken to any child who did not enjoy the experience and
even though it was many of the children’s first experience on a horse they do
not want it to be their last. It would be amazing if in years to come one of
the children became a world class show jumper or eventer and they could thank
us for giving them the ‘bug’ with their first experience on a horse.
Thursday was a sad day in Little Heath because Mrs Edwards has
retired. As I mentioned in an earlier newsletter she has been replaced by Mrs
Jo Munn who had a previous connection with the school as a parent. Mrs Edwards
has asked me to thank everyone for their kind wishes.
When the children return after the holiday it is the summer
term which means they can wear their summer uniform although could you please
keep their winter uniform for their class photographs which are on Monday, 25th
April. I hope you all have a great
holiday and I look forward to seeing you all refreshed and invigorated on Tuesday, 19th April.
