Our class memories, by Miss Merry

 

Hello Sapphire class I hope you are all okay,

We have not seen each other for a while,

But we will be returning back to school soon one day.

 

Here is a little poem, about each of you,

I hope you like it,

And that it makes you feel less blue.

 

Remember the time we made up a puppet dance?

Isabel, Katya and Emile you were so good at copying the moves,

You three loved to prance.

 

Remember when we learnt about the North and South Pole?

We mapped them onto blue balloons,

Felix, you were fantastic at sharing your geographical knowledge to us all!

 

Remember when we worked hard at all being more kind?

We learnt new fun games and shared our toys,

Khloe, you always looked out for others and never left anyone behind.

 

Remember when we went to the sea life center, and saw so many colourful fish?

You all loved going on the mammoth coach,

I would return to that day if I could, in a wish.

 

Remember how hard you all worked at writing and reading?

You all flew through the book bands,

Harley, Rifat, Taylor and Levi, I am so proud of you for always trying hard with this and succeeding.

 

Remember the times we would all sing our favourite songs?

Do re mi, never give up and my favourite things,

Freddy, you learnt the lyrics so well even though some were long.

 

Remember the daily mile, we challenged ourselves to run so far,

Come rain or shine,

Lucas, you were as fast as a racing car!

 

Do you remember everything that we learnt in Maths; tens and ones,

Adding and subtraction,

Saihan, you worked so hard and would often be the first to be done.

 

Remember how well you all tidied and looked after the class?

Jessica, you always offered to help me above and beyond,

You made sure everything was spotless and would be on the carpet last.

 

Remember when we had time to choose and play with our peers?

Dylan and Bracken, this was your favourite time which you would appreciate with a joyful cheer.

 

Remember on a Friday, we read to our parents or with our reading buddies in year four,

Chloe, you read so well to your buddy,

Our class would be filled with books and stories galore.

 

Remember when Miss Merry would drink her green smoothie after the register in class,

You all watched in horror and delight,

Especially when I said it was made of slugs and worms which made Nicole, Libby and John laugh!

 

I miss you all dearly and think of you every day.

Hold on to these special memories,

See you soon Sapphire class, the sun is always shining, even when the clouds are grey.
