Because our Chair of Governors, Christine Goldsack, does not herself post on social media, I thought I would share with you her open email to all parents and staff of Paces School. They deserve every congratulation, compliment and celebration. In return, I am sure they would want to offer their thanks to Christine and the Governors. Well done everyone! Here's Christine:
"Dear All
"Most of the Governors attended yesterday's production of 'Noah's Ark' and 'Songs from the Sound of Music'. We were as moved, amused and entertained as all the children's families who attended and so pleased to see the children's very obvious enjoyment in taking part. Many of the children have made really good progress since we last saw them in action. We would like to thank all the staff for giving us and them so much fun, only achieved by a great deal of dedication and loving hard work by them and the pupils.
"Can I also take this opportunity to thank the Parents of Paces, in particular Darrel and Jane Mettam, Jill Wimpenny and Stacey Mitchell. Yesterday you saw them organising the Grand Draw and selling the promotional goods - I have sent more than 100 cards this year, very proud that each one was designed by a Paces' pupil. Interestingly, I am receiving many too from friends who attended the Garden Party and also bought some! The PoP team has done an amazing job all year; they have raised a great deal of money which has helped complete the new classrooms and will help further improvements to the school's facilities; Jill takes the lead on organising the excellent termly Newsletter which is so professional and interesting; Jane organises the photographs each year, and so on. Attending PoP's monthly meetings, or asking to be mailed with information so you too can contribute ideas and help, is a way of being involved and showing your appreciation. Why not come along and join us - Darrel will circulate everyone with the date and time of the next meeting.
"Well done everyone, and a very happy Christmas to you all.
"Christine Goldsack, Chair of Paces' Governing Body."
