The Willows News – Week 7 20.10.17 The Willows News – Week 7 20.10.17 www.willowsprimary.com Explore - Dream - Discover Dear Parents/Carers What a great end of half-term surprise for our pupils: a visit from Tony Scholes, Mark Hughes, Jack Butland and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting. I can’t imagine that I will be writing about a guest list of this calibre in the future (but then, I’m always hopeful). Yesterday, was a wonderful example of ‘Willows team spirit’ – the ‘above and beyond’ that our staff demonstrate to make our school a truly amazing place. As a consequence, school looked fabulous; the pupils’ behaviour was exemplary and I was exceptionally proud of everyone (I hope you’ve seen the video clips on The Sentinel website). Press coverage was at a national level and so I’ll be searching through The Times, Daily Mail, Daily Mirror and The Sun this weekend to see if I can capture any coverage of the event that took place in school. Earlier today, I received a ‘thank you’ e-mail from Tony Scholes and I was delighted to read his final comments which I feel honoured to share with you: ‘I was incredibly impressed with your school. It is clear the school has a positive learning ethos, but one which is backed up by a caring and supportive atmosphere. The children were a delight and a great credit to the school and their families. We look forward to working with you in the future!’ A special mention must be made to Miss Smalley who co-ordinated the whole event – thank you.
