Year 3
“I can do things you cannot, You can do things I cannot;
TOGETHER
we can do great things.”
Mother Teresa
Remember, in this strange and unknown time, that we are together. We have shared many incredible moments this year and have lots to look forward to when we return.
I am so incredibly proud of everything you have achieved and will miss your beaming smiles, craziness and your outstanding compassion.
Stay safe. Spread love. Keep positive. Praise God.
