I was at Wellfield school this morning, in my capacity as school governor, to celebrate the official launch of the Building Schools for the Future programme which will see extensive improvements to the school building and grounds.
The threat of wet weather held off long enough to allow for a launch ceremony during which a time capsule containing contemporary school items was buried near to the newly re-dedicated memorial garden at the front of the school.
Credit is due to the headteacher, staff and students at the school who organised an excellent event and gave everyone a warm welcome on arrival. Whilst walking around the school and talking to staff and students before the event I got the clear impression that the school is moving very much in the right direction under the leadership of the recently appointed headteacher - so well done to all involved!
