Today we said farewell to our 6th Class pupils with a special assembly for their parents and the whole school. We were joined by Rev. Richard and Archdeacon Hazel as we sang some favourite songs chosen by 6th Class. Rev. Richard got 6th Class up to think about how they are feeling leaving Killeshandra N.S. and moving on to new schools, and he reminded them that God is with them as they start this new chapter in their lives.
6th Class also told us about some of their favourite memories from their time in Killeshandra N.S. and shared a poem with us that they had written to say farewell.
Each member of 6th Class was presented with a t-shirt signed by everyone in the school, a certificate, a framed picture of their class and a Bible as a gift and momento of their time in the school.
To finish off our special assembly, we enjoyed a beautiful cake sent in by one of the 6th Class parents and some delicious ice cream with lots of toppings. As we ate, we watched a slide show of photos of 6th Class through their years in the school – there was lots of laughter and a few tears as we looked back on their time in Killeshandra N.S.
We wish each and every one of our 6th Class pupils all the very best as they move on to new schools in September, and thank them for all they have contributed to life in the school over the last 8 years. Have a great summer everyone!
