Hello Class 4! I hope you have all had a
wonderful week. I am continuing to keep
you all in my prayers and hope you are
all safe and happy. It is so wonderful to see how
hard you are all working at
home.
This week I want you to challenge yourself by
carrying out acts of kindness at home. Try
and find one thing each day to do which will make someone smile.
Jimmy made me smile
this week when he picked fresh flowers from our garden and gave
them to me- it
really did make my day!
Maybe you could help fold the washing or tidy the
pots away
without being asked?

Update 04.05.2020
Hello Class 4. As we enter another week of distance learning, I just wanted to say how lovely it has been receiving your beautiful work.
Everything from art, writing, music and baking - the list goes on. I am putting lots of work on each week for those who feel they need it but please remember it is not compulsory to complete it all unless you are really enjoying it. I am keeping you all in my prayers and really hope you are able to cherish the time you are spending together.
A note to working parents: I completely understand how tricky it can be in juggling working from home with online learning. The BBC website, TTR, Abacus and Spelling Frame offer online lessons which children should be able to complete independently.
