Dear Marianne,

Thanks for your work for helping my mental health.

Before I came to this school, I didn’t believe that the mental health treatment is working, but after meeting you I now believe it.

It’s very hard to say goodbye to you because I don’t want to say it. You are the best teacher in this school in my view.

Hope you have a happy life in the future.

Hi Marianne,

I just want to drop a quick note to say a huge thank you for being such a rock for me, especially through the tough times. You’ve been amazing and I had been thinking about you a lot during my visit to my mom this Summer. It really hit me how much your support has helped and influenced me.

Wishing you a lovely week ahead.

Take care TH (09/2023)

Happy Birthday Ms Marianne,

I hope today feels as special as the impact you’ve had on the people lucky enough to know you, including me. You’ve been one of the most genuine and understanding people in my life this year. Whether you realise it or not, the space you created – calm, open and honest – has helped me to find clarity in ways I didn’t expect. You’ve made it easier for me to be real with myself, to work through things, and grow.

Wishing you a day filled with warmth, laughter, and the kind of love you bring into the world – and a year that returns all the goodness you give so effortlessly to others.

With appreciation and warmest wishes

Dear Marianne,

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to express just how much your presence in this school has meant to me. You became the one adult here I could truly rely on. You made me feel safe and you also helped me to see the world differently. 

I sincerely hope that I will always be able to stay in touch with you. If not, I wish you the same kind of luck I had … that you meet people as genuine, kind and empathetic as you are.

With all my heart, S (06/25)

Dear Marianne,

When I reflected on everything that happened in this year, I realised that they could have been a blessing in disguise. Without the pain, I would not have been able to meet you and have so many wonderful conversations.

Thank you so much for providing me all the support and help! Words truly cannot express my gratitude towards you and I wish you and your family happiness and joy. ☺ And I hope that we will still keep in touch! I guess I will be a lot more free in uni!
