Hello everyone,
I hope you all had a nice week and you are continuing to stay safe.
I have gathered some fun activities for you to do for the upcoming week and then you have two weeks off. I have left some Easter activities to do on the bottom of the blog page that you may like to do over Easter. All worksheets are at the bottom of blog page too.
I sent an email to your parents about Nessy. If you have started the programme , I hope you are enjoying it.
I would like to reiterate that the proposed work activities are not compulsory. It is an extremely difficult time for everyone and I know school work for some people is not practical.
Please do not hesitate to contact me by email.

Thank you,
