Teacher Appreciation

On Friday the 23rd of July, I tasked the Year 8’s with an opportunity to recognise and appreciate the work that the teachers of St Andrews College have been doing especially during this time of online learning. The students were able to submit their letters anonymously or with their names to Miss Mifsud and were delivered to each teacher. So many teachers had their days made with even some tears being shed! 

Some students wanted to address the St Andrews staff as a whole in their letters of appreciation: 

“To all the teachers at St Andrews,

I’d like to thank you for guiding us through these tough times, not many appreciate what you do for us but I have you know that I do, I don’t think I could be who I am without all of you, I have never felt so accepted in a community such as St Andrews, it hurts me so much to know I won’t be back in the school environment and getting to see everyone, but it brings me joy to know that we will all see eachother again soon, i am so happy to be surrounded by such wonderful and talented people as such, I must be so privileged to experience this, so I say thank you for everything.”

“Dear Teachers,

Thank you so much for helping us learn new things during lockdown, thank you for taking the time to plan our lessons, thank you for all your hard work and dedication, and thank you for being such amazing teachers!”

From Mary Grace

Thank you to the Year 8 students for lifting your teachers spirits, motivating & appreciating them and putting a smile on their faces during a tough time.
