My Swallowfield
Family
By Merryn
Now I’m going to tell you a story
All about how
Swallowfield flipped my life upside down
Now sit down for a minute or two
so I can see I am facing you
This is not a story of a prince or princess
Dragon or night
boxers in fight
A story of three wishes you choose you pick
No this is a story of pure Swallowfield magic
When I first walked into Swallowfield room
Learning life and laughter began to bloom like a flower
OK confession this poem is a bit… well cringe
This story starts in foundation
A,B,C everyone knows it across the nation
But in Swallowfield A was an apple
B, was a bug and C, was a chapel
Miss Papworth now Mrs Wissan
Miss Davison gone off abroad probably sunbathing
They created my base foundation
And started my Swallowfield journey of creation
Year 1, Goldentime and Fessy Fridays
Oh how I miss Mrs Rand and Fessys good old ways.
Superheroes what a super topic
Dressed like wonder woman and Superman
Then kings and Queens
My two teachers should think of themselves as an amazing team
Oh year 2&3 what a team
Only to be interrupted by covid 19
Forced to the screens of laptops and phones
Oh but the teachers how they kept on going
They made lessons fun right down to our bones
But who were these magicians of such wonder
But I say there is no question to ponder
It was of course Mrs Peters and Mr McGill
Oh Mr McGill deputy of the wonderful Mrs Brewer
And not forgetting the step in Mrs Falkner
Oh year 4 what a surprise
It really did open our eyes
We were to be year 5 & 6
Oldest in the school now that’s a mix
We had a funny teacher that year
He had jokes stored inside like jars
I think he might of come from mars
The teachers were very funny and jumbly
They were Mrs Peters, Mccormick and Mr plumbly
Them put together was a wonderful sceam
They really were the dream team
Oh year 5 what fun
Now year 4 was done
We were making history in Swallowfield
Oh in year 5
We lived the life
This was a new experience
And the teachers really took the chance
To make lessons fun
They were Miss Sharpe and Mrs Woodman
OK let’s be honest this next year
Is super Sonic
We had two teachers…
They were crazy
I mean what teachers can make math fun
By counting the farts coming out of someones bum
They were Mr Plumbly and Mr Carter
Let’s be honest they were silly and filled with laughter
Though times were tough in year six
They made it enjoyable
Even with SATs in the mix
Then there is Mrs Middleton
She was like everyones mum
(Including Mr P and Mr Carter)
She had a laugh about a bum and a fart
She really was year sixes heart
This is the end of my poem of happy
Also the end of my Swallowfield journey
You have taught me how to laugh
How to live life and work har
It has been quite a ride
As you can see, it is time to say goodbye to…
My Swallowfield Family.
