In our second year at Tarly Pit, it seemed as if we had sorted many of the teething troubles and had taken off. Of course, we benefited from the country having come through Covid. And so we were able to put on sports day and the end of school year celebration with a graduation ceremony.
Parents mounted a fundraiser which generaated enough for the purchase of four super wheelbarrows.
As ever, children were rising to the physical challenges of over, under and through.
Crops were ripe for harvesting. Garlic and onions were lifted, and tomatoes ripened faster than in years.
There was evidence of children’s enthusiasm for literacy, including what might be labelled graffiti.
But eventually, it was time for just one more hug before farewell for the last time.
Now the silence until September when everything begins again.
