This is just a really quick email (as I'm sure you must have so many emails at the moment!) as I saw the lovely video the teachers put together to welcome the girls back to school on the Challoner's Instagram and it really brought me back to my years at Challoner’s. I just wanted to say that it must be a very tricky time at the moment but it looks like everyone is doing an amazing job. I'm currently in my final year at Cambridge, getting ready to go into the world of work (applying for roles in PR/Marketing at the moment) and have been reflecting a lot on how my time at Challoner’s has led me to where I am today. The video really struck a chord and reminded me how special the Challoner’s community is, and I'm sure it has with the current Challoner’s girls too.
