Fond Farewells

We would all like to wish Mrs MacLennan from Dochgarroch a happy retirement. She will be

dearly missed by us all. Mrs MacLennan has been a teacher with the Highland Council for 40

years!!!! What a fantastic length of time and I know she has inspired, supported, encouraged and

enthused so many children and families. Please come back and visit us.

We would also like to say Good Luck to Miss MacPhee (also Dochgarroch) who is moving to Avoch

to teach P3 after the Summer. The children will be so lucky to have you as their teacher.

Janice Wilson our EYP in Tomnacross Nursery will also be leaving us to work in Merkinch as an early

Years Graduate – good luck Janice!

Baba who helped us with our reading will also be leaving the Cluster – thank you for all your help

Baba.

Julie Wilson will be leaving Teanassie but will be coming over to Tomnacross to work with the P1

class every 2 weeks. Teanassie’s loss is Tomnacross’s gain!

Thomas will be leaving Teanassie and joining Dochgarroch.
