Thank you for this. In addition to a positive start to the learning of our young people, attendance has also been excellent. Thank you for your support with this important area in moving our school forward. As always, attendance will be a big focus this year as every day, really does- count.

We are also pleased to welcome new Chair of Governors, Tony

Theobald. Tony has worked with us for a number of years but

we are now looking forward to working together in his new role.

Tony is introducing himself below in the special guest blog.

Thank you for your continued support. I look forward to another

brilliant year with the Castle View community.
