Friday the 24th of January, and what a week it’s been! The world keeps turning, and Donald has once again taken the oath as President of the United States—a reminder that, in life, unexpected twists and turns are inevitable. Whether you view it as a smooth highway or a bumpy road, it’s all part of the journey, and as we know at St. George’s, and Mossy Lea, it’s not the destination that defines us but how we travel along the way.
Speaking of journeys, I’ve embarked on a new one myself—I’ve bought a motorhome! It’s exciting, slightly terrifying, and a brilliant metaphor for life. A motorhome offers freedom, adventure, and the chance to discover new places. But it also requires planning, teamwork, and a willingness to navigate the unexpected. Much like our journey as a school community, it’s all about moving forward together—sometimes we cruise effortlessly, and other times we hit potholes. The important thing is how we keep rolling, supporting one another along the way.
As we move through this term, let’s take inspiration from the journeys we’re on, both individually and collectively. Every mile brings new opportunities to learn, grow, and make a difference. Remember Ecclesiastes 3:1: “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” This season is ours to make something special of.
So, buckle up, embrace the ride, and let’s keep working together to make St. George’s a place of hope, kindness, and adventure. Who knows what’s around the next bend—but I, for one, am excited to find out! 🚐✨
