Well what a few weeks it has been! It has certainly been a busy start to the school year, clearly evidenced by the fact that this is the first blog in a long time……. It has been great to get all pupils back in school, challenging, but great. We have been overwhelmed by the support that has been shown for the school; in the local community, from parents, pupils and everyone in our wider Hastings family.

However, it is a testament to their character that they …
