Glenbervie School Forest Fun Run & Walk: What a fantastic day it was for the 25th Anniversary of this event. We had 436 entries. The courses were well set

and clearly marked, thanks to Oliver Tattersfield. Big thanks to Jane Atkinson, who spent many hours organising the day, the PTA team and school staff. We would also like to acknowledge all the sponsors, (these are listed at the back of the Newsletter), please support them!. We thank the sponsors for their continuing support of Glenbervie School.

2019 Class Lists have carefully been compiled with much deliberation. Teachers have considered your child’s academic needs, social maturity, behavioural factors, student relationships and class dynamics before committing to the make-up of each class. A lot of thought and effort has gone into these decisions to place your child effectively where their needs will be met. We are fortunate to have fantastic teachers with different strengths and abilities who will share best teaching practise with our students. We are looking forward to an exciting 2019. The children will find out their class details on Wednesday, 12th December.
