You made everyone very welcome and your helpfulness and politeness were appreciated very much. You attend a good school. I am writing to let you all know what was so good about your school and what needs to improve. You all work hard and behave extremely well. Your hard work has been well rewarded for those of you in Year 6, with really good results in the recent national tests. The work in your books shows that you all work hard and make every effort to produce good quality written work, especially some of your science investigations. Well done!
