As ever, if you have any worries or questions relating to your child and need a little more time, please do not hesitate to arrange a time to talk. It is important for us all that your children are happy at school, so please keep us informed of any concerns, no matter how small. You can contact me via email: lgolden@stmaryswrithlington.co.uk or alternatively via Class Dojo.
May I take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support.
