Before I start this week’s newsletter, I want to thank you all for the partnership and support you continue to show as we work together as a community to educate our children. I do hope you are able to enjoy some of the winter break as a family and have time together that is memorable for all the good reasons. Our children grow up so quickly and such moments matter to us; I wish you all the best over the break and look forward to your safe return in the new year.
Sometime in the late 1990’s I walked into a café in Birmingham and said ‘hello’ to a student of mine who happened to be there enjoying lunch with her family. Mum and Dad smiled at me, said hello and I overheard the girl whisper ‘that’s my History teacher’ to them. I’ve always quite enjoyed the minor celebrity status of being a teacher out of the school building. Students are often very confused by the notion that teachers exist outside of the classroom. A while later, as the family left the café, the father gave me a nod, smiled and said
‘‘History teacher eh? What year was the Battle of Waterloo then?’’
