Congratulations Mrs Boyle

13th Jun 2026

Everyone at Birches Primary School would like to extend our warmest congratulations to Mrs Boyle on securing her place on the PGCE course at Ulster University!

This is a fantastic achievement and a well deserved recognition of Mrs Boyle’s dedication, care, and passion for education. Over her time with us as a classroom assistant, she has made an immeasurable contribution to our school community, touching the lives of pupils, staff, and families alike.

Mrs Boyle has been a valued member of staff in so many ways. She played an important role in our Staff Wellbeing Team, always supporting and uplifting colleagues, and contributed to countless other areas of school life with enthusiasm and commitment. She was never afraid to get involved, and always did so with a smile!

Many pupils will fondly remember her for bringing joy to everyday school life, including dressing up as Santa to lead the Daily Mile at Christmas, spreading festive cheer and ensuring everyone had fun while keeping active.

Above all, Mrs Boyle’s work as a dedicated classroom assistant, especially her care and support for Suzanne, has been truly exceptional. Her patience, kindness, and dedication made a real difference every single day, creating a warm and nurturing environment where children could thrive.

While we are incredibly proud of her and excited for the journey ahead, she will be greatly missed by everyone at Birches Primary School. We have no doubt she will go on to become an outstanding teacher and continue to inspire many more young learners in the years ahead.

We wish Mrs Boyle every success in her PGCE year and beyond. Once a member of the Birches family, always a member!

Best wishes, Mrs Boyle, your future in teaching is very bright!
