She was who have each contributed greatly to the continuing My Planet Liverpool story. true to her word and she gave the go ahead to feature an article on Morecrofts. As a result, Issue 1 of My Planet Liverpool included a two-page feature on the firm and I am delighted to say that Morecrofts has appeared in all 26 editions to date and that the majority of the 18 people who were pictured in that very first feature remain with the firm today. Julie has become someone I now class as a good friend and not just a business contact. I have been invited regularly to Morecrofts’ own events and have enjoyed many out of work social occasions with her and her fiance Paul and our several mutual friends. It took a leap of faith for her to give her blessing to include that first feature in what was an unknown product. The fact that she was willing to do so was an enormous boost to me, especially given Morecrofts high standing in Merseyside’s legal world. I thank her for the help she gave me then and for her continuing long term support of both myself and My Planet Liverpool.

  • Head's Weekly Newsletter
    Head’s Weekly Newsletter Issue 27, 5 April 2019 Mrs Ania Hildrey, Headteacher, [email protected] Dear Students, Families, Colleagues and Friends, Welcome to the last issue of this term’s Head’s Weekly Newsletter. As we end this term, we begin Easter Holidays. Easter, whilst not celebrated as ostentatiously as Christmas, is in fact, the most important festival in Christianity. According to the Bible, Jesus' death was a sacrifice for the sins of others, but his resurrection represents something even more powerful: the potential for rebirth, salvation, and renewal of faith. It is that sense of new beginning that drives the symbolic representation of Easter as celebrated in schools and popular, often non-religious culture: Easter eggs, baby chicks and bunnies symbolise new life, new way forward, new hope for the brighter future. As the world around us continues to present us with challenges, it is good to hold onto such symbols – religious or simply linked to nature and the cycle of life – to normalise change as an integral part of life. Our school has demonstrated just that this week: a bit of reflection, a touch of sadness at the changes associated with the time passing and people leaving our school, made better by and a healthy dose of appreciation for the journey we are on, and the optimism for the future. I thank you all for your hard work this week and this whole term – it has been a short but intensive one! The next one will come in no time at all and it will prove to be brilliant, no doubt.
