Headmaster's Message
Another ‘first’ for all of us this week was the combined orchestra day between Crescent and Crackley Hall. It was wonderful to see the massed ranks of the two schools joined together in the final performance and truly impressive to hear such quality in the performances. It is never easy to bring a junior age orchestra together and to see Mrs Barnes in action on the day was a fine sight. I know the children responded well to her coaching and we all enjoyed an excellent concert in the school hall.
It was lovely to see so many of you for the parents’ evenings on Wednesday and Thursday. It is a great opportunity for the staff to share their feedback with you and it was pleasing to hear so much positive feedback from you in return. I never tire of saying that the key to successful education is a partnership between home and school and when we can support each other and work together for the common good of the children, the sky is the limit. The staff put a great deal of thought and preparation into these evenings and I know you are appreciative of the hard work they put in for your children.
I know we have some children going off to watch the Wasps netball this weekend at the Ricoh arena, I hope it’s an exciting match for you. Foolishly, I made the trip to Villa Park with my son earlier this week expecting an easy victory for the claret-and-blues only to be horribly disappointed; so if you are off to the netball try to enjoy the action, whatever the outcome.
Have a good weekend.
