Grandparents’ Afternoon
What a wonderful week we have had. It was fantastic to see such an excellent turnout (140) in total. The children were able to join in with a craft activity, show their fabulous learning, followed by tea/juice and biscuits.
We pride ourselves on having such supportive families and I have to say the Grandparents are certainly leading the way. We had so many uplifting comments – just a flavour …..
‘Thank you - lovely opportunity to see Grandparents and Grandchildren sharing in their learning’
‘Thank you for letting us be part of this day – priceless.’
‘Fabulous idea – relaxed atmosphere – wonderful to spend time together.’
‘Thank you for involving us, we love coming to school.’
‘Thank you for such a special afternoon.’
‘Can this be an annual event and can we have more events for us Grandparents!’
‘… couldn’t believe the valuable learning taking place.’
‘What a lovely happy event for all the Grandparents. It has made a miserable day into a cheerful one.’
'We love St Bernadette's - our Grandchildren are so lucky - thank you.'
‘How important Grandparents are for family life, for passing on the human and religious heritage which is so essential for each and every society!’
