Hello everybody and welcome to Week 4! I hope you are all well and staying strong in these challenging times. It was genuinely touching to receive so many lovely emails from the children after our request last week. If that is something that they enjoyed doing, please encourage them to do this more regularly as we do miss them all greatly.
Please also use this email address if you wish to submit any work and receive more specific marking and feedback on what your child is doing well and suggestions for further improvements. All you need to do is ask!
