LEAVING CEREMONY FOR YEAR 11
YEAR 11 INVITATION – Leaving Ceremony
We wish to invite you, year 11, to a virtual ceremony on TEAMS on Friday the 17th (this Friday!) to say our goodbyes.
Because of the unprecedented circumstances we have not been able to wish you well formally as you finish year 11 and embark on this next stage of your learning. We wish to do this before the end of the academic year, so please join us!
In order to join us you will need to log on to your HWB account, and access the TEAMS app. If you then click the calendar tool (found on the bar on the left-hand side of your screen) you will be able to join the ‘Blwyddyn 11 Bugeiliol’ meeting. We will begin at 2pm and will be finished within 45 minutes. Remember to log in 10 minutes early to give yourself time to get set up and to avoid missing anything due to technical hitches.
Whilst we are busy organising things on our end, I wish to ask you to follow the link to our flipgrid (https://flipgrid.com/seremoniffarwelio), where you can leave a little message or memory that other pupils in the year group will be able to watch. Your message will need to be in Welsh and should be no longer than 2 minutes.
If anyone wishes to help me with preparations, please get in touch via email (Toot-EvanN@hwbcymru.net) and I will assign you a role. Alternatively, if you wish to send me some pictures of your and your friends then I can collate these into a video for you to enjoy as part of the ceremony.
We so look forward to seeing you on Friday – spread the message so that as many of you as possible can be there!
Thanks,
Mrs Tootill-Evans
