• Year 6 Leavers Celebrations

  Wed 21 Jul 2021

  On Wednesday 21^st July we celebrated Year 6’s time at Thornhill.  It kicked off with a dazzling performance of Oliver!  The acting, singing and team effort was spectacular! This was followed by guest speaker Darren Lewis (Assistant Editor of Daily Mirror), the outstanding Year 6 Class poetry performances and rounded off with their graduation.  It is both sad and exciting as we bid farewell to our wonderful Year 6 class of 2021.  They have all worked extremely hard, showing great resilience despite many challenges.  I am confident we will hear great and wonderful things about their accomplishments in secondary school and beyond.  We wish them a fond farewell and the very best wishes. 

   

  Bella from Meteors said “I hope that when I go to Camden School for Girls it will be just like Thornhill because everyone was so wonderful here”.
