West Hill Primary School had a very special goodbye to say and it was one of those goodbyes that is going to be difficult, because today, we said goodbye to someone who has quietly and lovingly shaped lives of so many children and families over many, many years... our wonderful Mrs Mayo.

All the children dedicated this lovely poem for Mrs Mayo...

You’ve wiped the tears and tied the shoes,

And shared the brightest, sunny views.

With patience, paint, and stories told,

You’ve turned our little hands to gold.

You taught us how to laugh and play,

And guided us along the way.

Now all your seeds have grown so tall,

It’s time to rest and hear the call—

Of quiet days and happy scenes,

For you’ve achieved your retirement dreams!

Thank you for the magic, the love, and the care,

You’re a teacher beyond compare.

Happy retirement Mrs Mayo

Mrs Mayo thank you for all your hard work and support you have shown everyone throughout the years at West Hill Primary School. Now its your time to relax and enjoy every moment.

Love from us all

Goodbye Mrs Mayo

Ant's Class Make Bird Feeders!

This week Ant's class have been enjoying the forest area where they had the opportunity to make bird feeders. The children sat in small groups, having discussions about what we can do to look after the wildlife, they then made bird feeders using honey and bird seed.
