Dear Marie,

Now that Joan is leaving [School Name] and our family’s relationship to the school is coming to an end we wanted to write to thank you all for everything you have done for our children.

We have had pupils attending [School Name] since our oldest son, George, began in [Year]. George loved his classmates and belonging to the [School Name] rugby squad, and once his younger brother Michael attended a match we knew we would be sending another child to [School Name]! Both boys excelled academically, but also made friends with whom they remain close to this day. We couldn’t have wished for any better experience for our boys.

Joan, our only daughter, began at [School Name] in [Year]. Though Joan had no interest in sports, she was immediately drawn to the drama programme and went on to participate in a dramatic production and musical theatre production each year of her enrollment. She found a mentor in [Teacher Name] and with her help has been accepted at [Institute of Higher Education] to study dramatic arts.

We have always felt more than satisfied with the education our children received at [School Name], but more than that we will remain ever thankful for extracurricular activities which helped our children become well-rounded young adults. We will always think of [School Name] fondly for that.

Sincerely,
