This School Year was Buckets of Fun! End-of-Year Craftivity

To kick off your summer crafting adventures and reminisce about the school year, we’re excited to introduce our Buckets of Fun Craft and Writing Activity! This delightful template will serve as a fantastic way for students to express how their school year was truly “buckets of fun.”

The Perfect End-of-Year Writing Activity for Year 1!

This fun summer craft template is a great way to show off your amazing writers at the end of a school year.

Beneath the bucket template, you’ll find a thought-provoking writing prompt that encourages students to reflect on their school year:

“My school year was ‘buckets of fun’ because…

Students can fill in the blank and share their special memories, accomplishments, and favourite moments from their year. This reflective exercise not only reinforces the positive aspects of their learning journey but also helps build a sense of closure as they prepare for the summer break.
