Merry Christmas!

16/12/2020

 
Dear Parent/Carer,

All the staff and governors at Darran Park Primary School would like to thank you for your continued support during the incredibly difficult times we have faced this term, both as a school and a community.   Your children have been an absolute credit to you, as they have shown courage, resilience and an enthusiasm to be in school from the first day we started back in September until now, and we are all very proud of them.  We would like to wish you and your families a Merry Christmas and hope that you are all able to enjoy the holidays.  The children will return to school on Tuesday 5th January (as Monday 4th is an INSET Day).
​
Stay safe and take care,
Best wishes,
Mr C.Coole and all the staff and Governors at Darran Park Primary School
