A time to reflect – thank you for the memories

It’s the last full week of the school year and what a strange year it has been.  While we haven’t seen you for nearly 3 months, be assured that we have been thinking of you and wondering how you are.  For those who have posted photos and comments on Twitter and in our class team, it has been lovely to see you.  We would like to set you some reflective tasks this week alongside the sports challenges.  Normally at this time of year we would think back over the year and what our favourite memory would be as well as thinking about our biggest achievement.  Maybe you loved our school trip or something special happened in your family.  Perhaps you learned how to ride your bike or you moved onto trickier reading books.

My favourite memory was our class trip to Edinburgh Castle.  It was a beautiful sunny Autumn day and the sky was blue.  Everyone had such a great time and were a credit to themselves and the school, we were so proud of you.  The views from the castle over Edinburgh were breath taking and appreciated by all.

My biggest achievement is having the motivation to go to the gym and classes 2 or 3 times a week.  I’ve never been a big fan of exercise but now I actually like it, so much so I’ve been doing some online classes during lockdown! 

So now it’s your turn.  Below are some different sheets you could use to record your memories and achievements.  If you can’t print the one you want to use then draw your own border or sections with headings, just copy the writing from the screen.
