Goodbye Year 5
Hello everyone. Here we are at the end of Y5. I wanted to say goodbye and wish you all the best for Year 6. It has been an absolutely amazing experience teaching you these last two years and I am very upset we didn’t get to see the year out together. You have been a fantastic class to teach and it has been wonderful seeing how much you have grown and progressed these last two years. I know you will have a great time next year and I can’t wait to see all of your smiling faces again when you return as Year Sixes! Have a lovely summer and remember to stay safe.
Thank you all again for a fantastic two years as your teacher,
Hello Year 5. Here we are at the end of the year. Even though it was such a short time, I have really enjoyed the experience of teaching you all this year. It is such a shame our time together got cut short but it was an amazing experience, one that I will remember forever. You have been a brilliant class to teach and I have thoroughly enjoyed all of the fun we have had together. It has been a pleasure to have taught you this year and I will miss you all. Have a lovely, safe summer everyone and I hope you all have a fantastic year in Year 6.
Thank you again,
Miss Calvert.
