Wishing you a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

Tough times never last, but tough people do. 

Robert H Schuller

We close the year 2020, I am sure that we all share a range of contradictory feelings. Sadness for those who have lost their health and livelihoods to this terrible virus. Pride in how we have all functioned together as a school community and supported one another throughout. We can also feel positivity for the future – not only to deliver the best education possible in the safest way possible, but also to ensure that Broadford Primary comes back even stronger than ever in January, with a re-doubled sense of the vital purpose of education and a commitment to achieving our individual academic and personal potential.

I would like to pay tribute to the way that pupils, parents and staff have coped with the current situation. It is impossible to have imagined us working together in such circumstances – and I am enormously grateful for your understanding, positivity and generosity. We have all needed to make significant compromises in terms of the way in which we have functioned and lived our lives. The messages of support and positive feedback that you have given to us have been appreciated more than we can say.

Thank you as well for all of the cards and gifts that have been given to staff. On behalf of them I would like to thank you for your kindness and generosity. I would like to wish you and your families all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
