Goodbyes All Around

As we come to the end of another wonderful school year, we would like to say a heartfelt thank you and farewell to several valued members of our staff.

After more than 20 years at St. Alban's, Mrs Mingstones is retiring. Her dedicated service, kind and caring nature, and unwavering commitment to our school community have touched the lives of countless children, families and colleagues. She has been an important part of St. Alban's for so many years and will be greatly missed by everyone.

We also say goodbye to Miss Bone, who is moving on to a new role at another school. We thank her for all she has contributed during her time with us and hope she takes many happy memories of St. Alban's into this exciting new chapter. We wish her every success for the future.

Our thanks also go to Miss Atkinson and Miss Quirke for all their hard work and dedication in Years 2 and 4. They have become valued members of our school family and will be missed by both staff and children alike.

We would also like to thank Mrs Ireland for all of her hard work and support during her time at St. Alban's. We are grateful for everything she has done for our school community.

While we are sad to see them all leave, we wish each of them every happiness and success in the future.

Finally, we are saying goodbye to some of our children who are moving on to new schools. We wish them the very best of luck, every success in their new adventures, and hope they will always remember their time at St. Alban's with fondness.
