Message from Year 6
Year 6 presented their own thank you message in assembly this week using their fantastic literary skills to get their point across. Well done!
"These last two weeks we have done our exams.
We’ve completed comprehensions and questions about parallelograms.
We have all tried our best, we’ve focused and listened and all been put to the test!
We stand before you today to say thank you!
To all our wonderful teachers and the best parental crew.
You’ve helped us along the way, settled our nerves and helped us grow and develop every day.
Some of us are not here today, they’re sitting their last assessment,
But we know they feel the same way about having us as a Ryleys investment.
From reception to year six Every teacher has been in the mix.
Adding to our journey and success We all feel incredibly blessed.
The Ryleys really does prepare us for life, With a quiet confidence we tackle all strife!
We are all committed team players! With a desire to learn that is built on layers!
We all promote a generosity of spirit!
While accepting a global perspective and defying all limits!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
We couldn't have done it without you!"

One part of this is our English Booster Sessions with Mrs Hague which help the pupils understand the styles of questions to expect when sitting Senior School entrance exams.
