Big Summer Takeover - Thank You Teacher

DELIGHTFUL DOWNLOADS

Here at the BIG SUMMER HOLIDAY TAKE OVER, we’re going to share ideas, suggestions and inspiration for activities throughout the whole of the school holidays.

You’ll also spot The Custard Crew popping up on the blog, our very own inspirational bunch, powered by play, curiosity, and the creative eccentricity that comes from kids just being kids.

They’ll be making appearances here on the blog and in some of our products throughout the holidays. Look out for them.

This week we have a dose of delightful downloads, all about THANKING YOUR TEACHER, or teaching assistant, or catering assistant, or playground helper, or reading volunteer, or cleaners, or crossing patroller, or caretaker, or librarian, or whoever you'd like to thank at school.

A colourful way to say a great big THANK YOU

INSPIRATION FOR WHAT TO WRITE

When you want to say thank you to someone special at school - someone who has been amazing and important – you might know exactly what to say, or you might find it a little difficult.

So here are some ideas: funny rhymes, sweet messages, and thoughtful notes. Use a word, a line, or a whole verse - whatever feels right! And if they spark your own message, even better. The best thank yous come from your heart!

Big School here I come!
Before I move on to somewhere new
Just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU!
Think I need a tissue
I’m SO going to miss you!
You taught me things I needed to know,
You watched me work and learn and grow.
From curious head to little toe,
You helped me… become me!
THANK YOU!
From little kid to big...
Thank you so very much
A huge thank you & goodbye
Promise me you won’t cry
Thanks a bunch.
Will miss you so much!
For all the little and big ways
you’ve been there…thank you!
Hope you know what a big difference you’ve made!
A ton of goodbyes
and a whole bunch of thank yous!
