Learning from home
If you are unable to be in school, we have some exciting home learning that you can take part in. This way you'll be able to keep on track with the rest of the class. There are lots of activities below for you to do: as a guide, try doing 1 English activity, 1 maths activity and 1 creative activity a day.
We'd love to hear how you are getting on - you can send us photos through Class Dojo or email.

You do not need to follow this but just as a suggestion to help with routine.
