Well I can’t believe, a whole year has passed,
Since you started school, it’s just gone so fast,
That day you walked off, looking so small,
All smart in your uniform, ready for school.
At Harvest Festival, in church you stood,
Joining in with the songs, as best as you could,
The Nativity Play, now there’s a delight,
How cute you all looked, not a dry eye in sight,
(beautiful angels, all dressed in white!)
I came into school, to see craft that you’d made,
I could take it all home, after I’d paid!
You all sang some songs, entertained us all,
Standing so smartly, in that big hall.
You brought home reading books, shared them with me,
You’d sit down and read them, after your tea,
You learnt all your sounds and to read words and spell,
To count and add numbers and write sentences well.
I watched your assembly; you were all very good,
You’d all learnt your lines, and spoke when you should,
I was so proud of you; my throat had a lump,
My little girl, up there at the front!
We have many a painting, stuck on the wall,
Plants & junk models, you’ve brought home from school,
They all remind us, of the effort and fun,
And all the hard work and learning you’ve done.
You’ve learnt to turn cartwheels, the best that I’ve seen,
Sometimes I call you, my ‘Cartwheeling Queen’!
Your Grandparents came in, to join you for dinner,
You earned lots of Green Cards, once you were the winner!
You’ve joined in sports and non uniform days,
You’ve matured and grown up, in so many ways,
I’ll watch you at sports day, as you join in the races,
I’ll be there cheering, amongst all the faces!
You’ve had a class disco, made many a friend,
I look back with fondness, as it comes to an end,
You’ve learnt such a lot; I hope you’ve had fun,
May your success continue, as you start Year One.
Love from Mummy xxxx
