Well, that's all, folks!
Today is the day I have been dreading – the day I say goodbye to my dream. It's going to be a very difficult day. I know that I will try to hold back my tears, but already my eyes are leaking.
I am truly sorry that I couldn't change the outcome, and I want to express my deep gratitude for the incredible support you have shown, not only to me but to all the staff. The kind words, hugs, and tears have meant the world to me.
It has been an absolute pleasure to be part of all your children's journeys. I hope that the head start we have given them will help them flourish into amazing young people and adults. I am unsure of what the future holds for me, but I want to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart.
To all the staff – you are all amazing. You have shown these children love and compassion and treated them as your own. I know you all have your own battles over the next couple of months, settling into your new settings or wherever life takes you. I cannot thank you enough.
As I embark on finding a new dream, I know it won't ever be the same again, but please don't hesitate to say hello if you see me out and about. Always remember that you were all part of a very special Oak Treehouse family.

With love, Sally
