End of Year 1 Update

Gwyliau haf hapus pawb! 

As we reach the end of a wonderful year in Year 1, I would like to take a moment to say how incredibly proud I am of each and every child.

The children have worked exceptionally hard throughout the year, showing determination, enthusiasm and resilience in everything they have done. From developing their reading and writing skills to becoming confident mathematicians, they have made fantastic progress and embraced every challenge with smiles and positivity.

We have had so many fun experiences together this year, and it has been a joy to watch the children grow in confidence, independence and maturity. They should all be very proud of everything they have achieved.

I want to say a very special thank you to the children and the Year 1 team from (red hair) Mrs Lewis. You have all made my first year of teaching at Thornhill incredibly special. It has been a privilege to be part of your learning journey, and I will always cherish the memories we have made together. Your kindness, enthusiasm and eagerness to learn have made every day a pleasure.

I also want to say a special thank you to Mrs Baker, Mrs Norman, and Mrs Lewis for all their fantastic help this year. Mrs Lewis (brown hair) will be moving on to an exciting new adventure in September, and I know the children will miss her very much, but we are all wishing you pob lwc in your next endeavour. 

Thank you also to all our families for your continued support throughout the year. Your encouragement and partnership have helped make this such a successful and happy year.

I wish all of our Year 1 children a fantastic summer holiday filled with fun, adventure and plenty of time to relax. I know you will all continue to shine as you move into Year 2, and I cannot wait to hear about all the amazing things you achieve next.

Have a wonderful summer and good luck in Year 2!

Mrs Lewis and Mrs R-B.
