I know I probably say the same thing at this time of year
but I cannot believe how little of the term is left. It is always so busy and I
have so many meetings to attend and paperwork to complete that I need at least
another 3 weeks more of term. My view would probably not be popular with the
children but they do not need to worry because there is no chance that I will
get my way.
I am typing this in the midst of preparations for our Summer
Fayre. The PTA have worked very hard to put this event together and it looks
like the weather is going to be kind to us which is great news. I hope to see
as many of you there as possible because the more money we raise the better
quality of education we can provide for your child. I will let you know how
much money we raise as soon as I find out.
I know many of you
are going to be inconvenienced by next Tuesday’s strike action but the reason
that it is taking place is because there have been so many cutbacks that many
people who work in education are worried about how we are going to sustain the
quality of learning that your child deserves . There are already some schools
that are having to make cutbacks and in the near future we could be joining
them unless something changes drastically. The NUT members have decided
overwhelmingly to take action (and other unions could be following them) which
is why we will only be open for one class next Tuesday. I could only totally
close the school if I could not guarantee the safety of the remaining children
on health and safety grounds and I can ensure this so we have to open.
Next week I will not be in on Monday and as many of you will
not be here on Tuesday I will see all of you again on Wednesday. If you do need
to contact me regarding any matters I will be here on Tuesday or you can make
an appointment to see me at a convenient time. However, hopefully I will see
you all at the fayre on Saturday. I will either be walking around or based at
the sand pictures stall.
