Year 6 Kew College – Class of 2017
Goodbye
Kew College has taught me to have
confidence to try new things and to take
risks, from zip wiring in Bowles to swinging
over a river in France. I have so many
happy memories that will stay with me for
the rest of my life! It also helped me to find
the confidence in subjects such as Spellings
and Maths and helped me to find my
passions: History, Science and English.
Through my years here at school I have
discovered more amazing things to do and
have enjoyed becoming more competent in
skills such as Swimming and Dancing. As
my time at Kew College ends, I look back at
my wonderful experiences and thank it for
helping me through my exams and for
making me the person, I am today.

When I first started as a nervous Nursery child, I never thought past each day or what I would
do, let alone know who I would become over the next eight years. I have become more than I
could have hoped for. Kew College has made me who I am and without the teachers’ help and
support I would never have run for House Captain and would never have won the election!
They have inspired me to do more, for example I am now a Grade 3 flautist and have started
piano lessons too. I still remember all of the trips throughout my years here; like Bowles,
Bushcraft and France. I can see how my skills in all of my subjects have improved and I know I
could never have done any of this without being at Kew College. Although it is hard to say
goodbye I know that I have to, and I am looking forward to going to my new school, Hampton.

Seven years have flown by and I am now at the top of the school. I still
remember my first day where I made my first friend. In the beginning, I
was a shy girl but Kew College has given me confidence and resilience.
From surviving in the wild to campaigning for a local charity, I have
become mature and strong-willed. My friends and teachers have
supported me throughout and prepped me extremely well for the exams.
I will miss everything about Kew College. The tense elections, the exciting
House events, the wonderful school trips, but most of all, the friendships
I made there which I know will last for life. I will leave with a heavy heart
but know that at Godolphin and Latymer School, I will create more
memories with the respect and kindness I inherited from Kew College.

The welcoming royal blue double doors are my first memory of Kew
College, having joined in Year 2. However, my lasting memory will be
the fantastic and life-long friends I have made. My friends are, for
me, the best thing about my school. Looking back at my time here, I
have so many happy memories. I have loved all the sport at Kew
College, particularly hockey and cricket , both of which are going to
be useful at Kingston Grammar. The lessons also stand out as they
are extremely interactive and every pupil has a chance to speak out
and share their opinions. I have loved the trips, our plays and the
energetic atmosphere in the school. Although I am excited and ready
to move on to senior school, I know Kew College will always be in my
heart.
