Year 6 Kew College – Class of 2017 Goodbye From my first day at school, Kew College has been a second home to me. I have been here for eight years and have enjoyed every moment. I will never forget the great memories throughout Kew College; canoeing in France, elections, sports day and many more! I am excited to see what Putney will bring but am extremely sad to leave. I have made so many friends in my time at Kew College and I hope I will make just as many great friends at Putney High School. Dani D 6T I have been at Kew College for six years and have enjoyed every minute. I have learnt to become confident in myself and much more imaginative in my writing. One of my favourite residential trips was when the whole of Year 6 travelled to France and when we all jumped into the freezing cold lake whilst canoeing. Next year I am going to Notting Hill and Ealing High School and I could not have done it without all the teachers help and support through all the good and bad times. Thank you Kew College! Sophia B 6T I still remember my first day when a wave of nerves washed over me. Stepping into the courtyard, into a sea of smiling faces suddenly overwhelmed me. As the rest of Nursery Red went off to assembly I was still bawling my eyes out, but I had a friend by my side, a lifelong friend who felt the same way as I did. Everybody in my year has always been there when I needed help. Kew College has given me freedom and independence as well as order. We are a very democratic school - I remember in Year 5 I was voted in as Junior Road Safety Officer also known as J.S.O. I’ve also taken up many extra-curricular activities such as LAMDA and Fencing. However, some of my best experiences have been on residential trips such as Bushcraft and France. In this year’s spectacular school play – The Jungle Book, I played Baloo, the bear. I am looking forward to going to my first choice school, Latymer Upper School and will remember Kew College fondly. Oscar R 6G My time at Kew College has been a memorable experience. I have learnt so much and improved all my academic skills and sports. Over the years I’ve become more independent and confident in my work and in my day to day life. I have loved all our residential trips. My swimming has improved dramatically, I have loved every Gala and set school records. Meeting my friends are the best memories of my time at Kew College and knowing that they will always be there for me. Hampton is my next school and I will bring all my memories such as being on the School Council with me. The teachers have helped me in my exams and made life fun. Farewell Kew College. Obrad K 6G 34
