Dear Students, as you all probably know by now I shall be leaving the Centre at the end of June. Before you all disappear after the exams I just wanted to say 'bye and wish you all the very best of luck in your future studies and careers.  I have no doubt that you will all go on to do great things.  I shall miss you all (yes, even though at times you have pushed me to the brink of frustration) but I intend to keep in touch with the Centre so will hear about all your successes.  Thank you to all year 2 students for the lovely card.
