Obviously we couldn’t close this chapter without recognising our incredible Director, Rebecca! Georgia put how we feel into words beautifully:
“What can we say about our dear Mrs Boss Bex?
I could talk about her caring heart, her enthusiasm, I could go from one thing to the next.
What started off as a name on a business card, grew to wonderful colleagues and now to friends that will forever chat,
And honestly, what could be better than that?
‘Right hand lady’ I have been called on many occasions, a label I wear with pride,
Every Magic Moment recorded and celebrated and in a minute, you can look inside.
One of mine has to be our first office that was so small that during meetings, I had to straddle the heater!
I’ve watched you grow your family and thankfully the size of the office, however another I will always cherish sitting with Gaia in one arm and a laptop in the other.
You should be so proud of what you have achieved in all of these years,
It has certainly paid off, all of that blood, sweat and tears.
From Sirens of Chetham, to changes in the current, to the enhance project, the successes just go from here to the sun,
They stretch from dancing on the pier, to the rats bay shing dig, to lots of cheery Santa fun runs.
We have had wonderful socials where we bonded as a team, laughter had with every bite,
Some funny stories too such as Steph shattering a wine glass or Alice setting the napkin alight!
You have celebrated TRS Teachers at every opportunity, taught us, advocated for us, awarded us with treats,
There are still wonderful things to come such as camping, yoga and toasted marshmallows at the TRS Teacher retreat!
Thank you for your belief that you are leaving the team in goods hands still,
I will circle them in enthusiasm but there is a reason I couldn’t take on your logo, they are simply too big TRS footprints to fill.
We know that your destiny now is to raise chickens, ride trackers and heard sheep just to start,
However we know that you will always hold Dance very close to your heart.
While we cannot wait to meet the best egg barer in the forest, our dear Esmerelda,
We cannot help but think about how we will miss her care taker,
However, it isn’t the time for sadness or to shed any tears,
Just the biggest thank you, and best wishes, to the Ultimate TRS Teacher of the year xx"
