At the end of this term, Mrs Rivitt retired from Carisbrooke Primary School, where she has worked for 26 years. I think the vast majority of the children have been lucky enough to have been in a class where Mrs Rivitt has worked and benefitted from her many talents. Her contribution to the school has been immense—particularly in the area of creative arts. Her art club is legendary and has always been incredibly popular—so much so that places have to be allocated on a first come basis, and there has always been disappointed faces for those who weren’t quick enough! As with so many of our staff, Mrs Rivitt has always given so much more to the school and children than her role requires; going on school trips, organising first aid across the school, helping out at PTA events, doing all the scenery for school plays and most recently giving her full support to global rock—is a short list of some of her contributions. As a school, we marked her retirement during our final whole school assembly of the term. We all wish Mrs Rivitt a long and happy retirement, a rest well earned!
Thank you from everyone past and present at Carisbrooke.
