On behalf of the Longwick fete committee I would like to thank you and all your children for the wonderful maypole dancing, garland making and singing the Mayday song in the Old School House on fete day

Being a child at Longwick school is very unique because no other school in the local area makes flower garlands quite like we do!

Your enthusiasm towards our event is greatly appreciated, you have supported our event each year and we are now making huge strides with the garland making and advanced maypole dancing

Thank you

Can I thank you for your time today to show me around Longwick School and giving me a flavour of what Primary Education is like. You have a lovely school and the staff and students were a delight. Please thank your staff for their hospitality and praise the students for their amazing work.

Thank you for making me feel so welcome. The activities spread within the woodland setting give a calmness to the site and it was good to see your children so engaged in and enjoying their experiences. I can understand why you like visiting Blackland Farm.

On behalf of Longwick Fete committee I would like to thank the children of Longwick school for their involvement with the village Fete from designing the front cover of the brochure, maypole dancing, garland making, learning the song and taking part in the parade. 

I would like to thank all the parents for their contributions towards the flower donations, for buying raffle tickets and bringing their children to the fete to take part in our day

I would also like to thank the Headteacher who is incredibly supportive of our efforts to involve the children in this traditional community activity.

“The children have done a wonderful job this morning. They are so mature and sensible. They have showed great respect this morning.” 

“Aren’t your children amazing? They really are a credit to your school.”

"Thank you for coming to visit us and sing for us.  Really lovely children, so polite and nice. You should be so proud. We hope you will come back at Easter."

Please pass on my thanks for their time and kind attention - it's clear that they share our belief in the importance of sustaining local community institutions and the fostering of good relations and support networks in all aspects of village life. For this we are grateful.
