I wish to farewell Mrs Campbell and Megan Booth. Mrs Campbell worked as part of our G1/2 for just over a year now, she is a well-loved teacher, and we’ll miss her. Megan, our school counsellor has been with us for 3 years, it is sad to see her go as she has provided much needed support for children, families and teachers. All the best Mrs Campbell and Megan on your next adventures.

Mrs Foot will be taking leave for 2021 as she prepares for the welcoming of a new member of her family. We wish Mrs Foot and her husband, Vivek all the best for next year, and I am sure she’ll share some photos with us once her baby is born.
