Our local MP, David Blunkett, visited Marlcliffe on Friday 1st May. He was so impressed with our recent inspection report that he came to tell us personally what a great job we are doing.
He spoke toSam Fearnehough (Headteacher) and Helen Mathers (community governor) and also to a group of Year 6 children. The children told him what they like about Marlcliffe and also had a chance to meet Sadie, Mr Blunkett’s guide dog.
Although this was a very short visit Mr Blunkett has promised to return soon and spend more time going into classrooms and talking to pupils.
Wow! We hade a MP at our school and i didn’t even know it.
Reply: Yep. He’ll be back for a longer visit soon.
