Farewell Year 1!

Hard to believe that the end of the school year has arrived, nevertheless it has.
I have had such a wonderful time teaching Year 1, I'm only sorry the face to face time was cut short.
However in the time we did have together, I got to know the students very well and I have wonderful memories of them.
Each of the children has unique talents and personalities, so much so I could write a blog about each one but I shall limit myself to a sentence or two.

Natasha

Natasha always entered the classroom with a lovely big smile on her face. As such she set the tone for the day. She helped make the Year 1 classroom a happy place.
Thank you Natasha.

Luffy

Luffy's enthusiasm and excitement for learning is contagious. Not only is Luffy a great student but also a great teacher. I learned so many things from you Luffy.
Thank you.

It wasn't difficult to find a picture of Torch smiling, as he smiles most of the time. Your sense of humour is one of the many things I admire about you Torch.
