    We would like to say a big thank you to Miss Sewell, who has been covering Miss Wilmshurst’s maternity leave. She will be leaving us for a little while when Miss Wilmshurst returns. We say ‘goodbye for now’ to Miss Sewell next Friday but look forward to welcoming her back after Easter when she will be coming back to teach year 5 (initially alongside Mrs Ingles and then as year 5 class teacher when Mrs ingles goes off to have her baby). We are so fortunate that Miss Sewell has agreed to stay on with us as she has become such a valued member of our team
