A message from our children:

Dear Teacher

We are looking for a new head teacher. We would like you to be kind to the children and the grown-ups in our school. We would like you to give us good rules, to be fair and to keep calm in tricky situations. We'd love you to help our learning to be fun by using our woods, inviting lots of different people to visit us and keeping our clubs. Also, it would be great if you could come and help us to learn in our classes. In our school, we believe in Jesus and we would like you to believe too. Thank you very much. The children of St Peter's.
