Welcome Back!
A very warm welcome back to all Bronte families as we embark on the
academic year 2019/20.

It was lovely to be greeted at the gate by so many smiles on Wednesday,

and also to meet our new children. The Reception class looked
extremely smart and grown up in their uniforms and during the
afternoon we have been getting to know our new Kindergarten children.
Mrs Lakha and Mrs Eggleton have been very impressed at how well they
are settling.

We will feature some photos of the KG children next week along with our
Year 6 leavers as they embark on the next stage of their education at
Secondary School.

I very much hope you enjoy looking through our marvellous class
photographs………
