Award Presentation
On the last day of term we were very honoured to have Ranjana Patel come along to our class to present Jaswinder Singh with an Outstanding Learner Achievement Award. This is a very special English Language Partners bi-annual award which is presented to a learner who has shown outstanding progress in their acquisition and use of English. Jaswinder is from India and had never been to school before he attended our classes. Jaswinder not only studied and practiced his English outside the classroom, he picks up and drops of some fellow students so they may attend the class and has helped some of the other learners in his class to resolve issues they have had outside the classroom. Congratulations Jaswinder. We are all really proud of you.

Mail Delivered to wrong person
Hi,
I received a letter addressed to WenXig Zhao for my address in Wattledowns a couple of weeks ago and still haven't found the owner.
There is no return address and no stamp so hand delivered.
Does anyone know of this person?
If not, what is the next action - bin it? or open it and see if I can find another means of contacting them or the writer?
