School Memoirs:

I want each sixth class pupil to write me a memoir about their time in Scoil Teampall Toinne. This is

just a piece of writing that is personal to you and explains how you feel about leaving primary

school, what you’ll miss, the fun times you had, what you’ll always remember etc.

I want it to be approximately one A4 page and if you can type it on a Word doc and send it to me

that would be great.
