Dear Parents and Carers,
Welcome to this week’s edition of the Heathfields Newsletter. We’d like to begin by saying a heartfelt thank you for your wonderful support over the past week.
Our Mother’s Day assemblies were truly special. It was lovely to see so many of you joining us to celebrate and share in those memorable moments with the children.
A huge thank you also for embracing the magic of World Book Day. The children looked fantastic in their costumes, and it was clear how much effort had gone into helping them bring their favourite book characters to life.
Finally, we have been blown away by the creativity shown in the Story in a Jar creations. Each one reflected incredible imagination and care, and the children have been so proud to share their literary masterpieces with their friends and teachers.
