Freyja was back from high school early so it was lovely to have her celebrating with us too. We all enjoyed eating delicious cakes (thanks Eileen), chatting and looking at the photos.\u00a0 Harris and Heidi were also given memory jars with little rolled up scrolls with favourite memories from everyone \u2013 many thanks to Lucy for organising this the previous week, and also for the beautiful thank you card the children secretly made for me too! What a lovely sentiment! Harris and Heidi have had a great couple of years at FIPS and it has been wonderful to see them flourish during this time and this is thanks to the exceptional staff and children who have all had a positive and lasting impact on them. Thank you all so much for making such a difference.<\/p>\n<p>It has been a real privilege and a pleasure to teach at Fair Isle Primary School.\u00a0 The exceptional staff make it a very happy place to work, as do the amazing families who have been a dream to work with! Thank you to the wider community for the wonderful gift of one of Marie&#8217;s beautiful Fair Isle throws &#8211; I am touched by everyone&#8217;s kindness and generosity.<\/p>\n<p>Best wishes to
