Thank you very much for kind comments about Amberley Ridge Mrs L. Unfortunately the fete you saw advertised was for the village of Amberley and not our school. We look forward to seeing you again soon
Mrs L
11 June 2008 17:08:17
I visited your school today to see whether I wanted my son to come and join you in September. What a lovely, calm school with almost all the children enjoying their learning. The school is clearly a well loved place by children and staff alike as it looks like you all look after it so well. It was lovely to see all the childrens brilliant pieces of work all over school. Amberely Ridge is the favourite for September ! What a pity that the guestbook hasn't been used for a while. Might also be nice to update the calendar too, as I drove away I noticed you have a summer fete on this saturday but it's not on the calendar. Hopefully meet you all again soon

It has been a while since I left a comment so thought it was about time. I am so pleased that everybody likes the website. Please keep visiting it to see what the children are up to. A message to all teachers if any children do anything that you think could be added to the website then just ask it can be made possible for our children to be on the WWW. Will see what I can do about getting Charlie up to school to meet everyone.
