Dear Parents and Carers,
Thank You
Thank you all so much for your kind words, best wishes and generous gifts. I will miss being at Broadford every day but I am looking forward to this next stage and spending time with my family. I will leave the education of your children in the very capable hands of Mr McLucas and the school leadership team, I know they will all do a wonderful job. I will be returning later in the school year and I am looking forward to seeing the progress of all our pupils at Broadford.
Thank you once again for your continued support.
