Amethyst, Diamond & Emerald Blog - Friday 12th March 2021

 Happy Friday everybody, we hope you have had a good week! It has been absolutely wonderful to have all our children back in class and we have all been blown away with how magnificently they have all settled back into school life. It has been especially lovely to see them interacting, chatting and playing with their friends again and to enjoy simply being in the company of other children.

Over the next few weeks we will look to share some of these experiences with you via our blogs. Starting with...

Amethyst & Lenny the Leveret

As you may have seen in the newsletter from 2 weeks ago, Miss Wakefield and Mrs Holmes have been bringing the children's ideas about decorating our giant baby hare, Lenny, to life. Lenny the Leveret will form part of the "Hares About Town" trail in Southend in July. This week all the children in school added their fingerprint to Lenny. It was a lovely occasion that felt like it brought the whole school together even though we are in our own bubbles. Here are some of Amethyst class adding their prints:

Homework

This week, we would like the children to continue with their Maths Homework book and complete page 37. Don't worry if you have fallen behind a little in this, just start again from where you got up to last time.

Even though we are all back to as close to normal as we can be at the moment, we are still always available on our Key Stage 1 email. If you have any questions or concerns, please just ask and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

We really hope that your child has enjoyed their first week back as much as we have. We wish you a relaxing weekend.

Best wishes

KS1 Team
