What headship means for me and maybe might again some day in another adventure

Belated thanks to Adisa the Verbalizer-an amazing poet who came in and inspired every one to write...including me:

I am from yellow hats, high viz jackets and allen keys and inflatable planets,

From a once in a life time, privileged 

opportunity

I am from parent and toddler group googly eyes straight to afternoon interviews

From presentations of watering cans and sunflowers

I am from Dr martens, builders tea and sofits and fascias

From the controversial ICT walls and neighbour complaining woodchip burners

I am from appointing inspiring people, unpacking boxes, flapjack on the floor in the staffroom

From piling up  postura  chairs and community plaything parts, a fleet of wooden trucks

I am from a team pulling together, hard work but exciting, hoping, dreaming of this school

From final preparations, paper registers, can’t go upstairs, no computers, can you believe it?

I am from silver shiny pillars and rainbow windows

From green and navy Josh Clarke - rainbow badge clad first pupil of the day

I am from awe and wonder, proud children and team, relief at opening on time

From first everythings, harvest, Humph the camel, discos, parties, towering Christmas trees

I am from a cold March day, children gathered singing heartily, colourful Chris the clown

From ribbons cut for official openings from a very nearly lost official

I am from sunny sports day, energetic, eager, win or lose, sporting spirit

From rainbow afternoons of create, make and do it

I am from children shaping the Rendlesham way

From Leaver’s assembly, first tear jerking farewells to our year 6s, always proud of who they are today.


I am from Carolyn Grace’s inspiring story

From spitfire fly by s especially for US

I am from new life and happiness

From babies, maternities, bundles of joy

I am from sadness, remembering

From pink wafers, Mike TV and special garden sofas

I am from technical glitches, ELLOH hitches


From OOPS and start again and smiles and perseverance

I am from Ofsted inspections , growing together

From celebrating our learning, Rendlesham recipes forever.


I am from team spirit, school community, one to be proud of

From the fluffy ladies team, growing, evolving, developing

I am from the best team I’ve worked with..EVER

From the most wonderful children, we’re fiercely proud of

I am from awe inspiring thoughts to collaborative creativity

From a passion for learning

I am from vision to reality, nurturing young people to be all they can be

From care, hard work, determination and ‘such fun’ smiles

I am from the rainbow school with warmth for miles

From children at the centre in all we do

I am from Rendlesham, I am from you!
