The coronavirus has touched or impacted each life in our community. “Normal” is not a word that is easily defined today or even tomorrow. As the Headmistress of Learninghouse School, I have at times ached for the normal of yesterday. The normal of wonderful students chattering during lunch, running at recess, singing during specialist class and engaged in learning in their classrooms. Literally overnight students were now at home and parents, grandparents and guardians became the teachers. Life seemed to be compelled to a new “normal” that has felt something akin to “The Twilight Zone” at times. The capacity and tenacity of parents and others who stepped up to the challenge of adding “teacher” to their already full list of hats they wear in a day has been incredible.
This letter is written to simply express gratitude and appreciation to each one of you who have had the opportunity to be the teacher to your child.
Randy Pausch said, “Showing gratitude is one of the simplest yet most powerful things humans can do for each other.” With that being said, I am not sure how I can show my appreciation for your dedication, your patience, your diligence, your support and your tender care you have shown in taking on the role of teacher in your homes. You have inspired me and so many of our staff members. The media mentions of many that deserve our thanks, and rightly so, but I did not want each of you to be left out or forgotten. So, from my heart to you I say, THANK YOU!
At the end of Academic year we congratulate you for your ward’s Annual Result and are committed to work on the areas that further require improvement.
I hope that your child has continued to find online classroom very helpful in this pandemic .In compliance with Government directives for physical re-opening of school, we assure you that we are fully geared up with all SOP’s in place, specially a safe environment for all, at the school.
As our paramount concern, we are assuring to keep our prime focus on health, safety and well-being of our students, parents and staff.
We wish you all health and safety at all times.
