On Monday and Tuesday this week we had nineteen visitors in school who were hoping that they might join us to train to become teachers next year at Ivanhoe. We could only choose two and it was a very difficult job indeed. I asked all of them what they thought of the school after they had spent a morning or afternoon with us, and I was very pleased with some of the things they said. Everyone said how friendly and confident the children were. They loved the fact that you were so friendly and welcoming and they liked your politeness and good manners. They said it was obvious that children, staff and parents all got along very well with each other. Many of them said that Mrs Foster was very welcoming and looked after them when they first arrived. They said the school looked beautiful and that children worked very hard in their lessons! They also loved the idea of the golden leaves on the golden tree. I hope that everyone is proud of the good impression that these visitors had of the school.
What is it about our school that you think that visitors would like so much? Write down some of your ideas…
