We can’t thank you enough for being our rock. In the crazy fairground ride that is our daughter’s world, Fairfields has been our Cinderella castle in the middle – what are we going to do without you?

I think it is a privilege my son goes to such a brilliant school. Everyone is always so happy and nothing is ever too much trouble. I think you are all amazing.
