Happy Retirement Mrs Neighbour

Happy Retirement Mrs Neighbour

We said a sad goodbye in an assembly for our amazing school Secretary Mrs Neighbour after working here for 22.5 years. We sung a special Mrs Neighbour version of football anthem ‘It’s Coming Home’ called ‘Mrs Neighbours Going Home’, which we think as a huge Chelsea fan she enjoyed! All the classes contributed to Mrs Neighbour's farewell with poems and songs.

Thank you for all your hard work over the years Mrs Neighbour, you are going to be very much missed, but hope you enjoy your early retirement.
