For Children at Home

Hello Y4/5, I’m sorry that you are not able to be in school at the moment. So that you can keep up with the work that we are doing in class this week, I would like you to have a go at the activities on Google Classroom. I’ve set the activities for everyone to access but if you were in school for that particular lesson, you don’t need to do it at home too!

Just to clarify this is just for children who are currently at home. The rest of the class, who are in school, will not need to complete this work. Sorry for any confusion!

Mr Myers

Hi all,

Just wanted to say what a fantastic first week Y4/5 have had. I’ve been so impressed with the way you’ve all started the new year and am looking forward to a great year ahead. Everyone has come in with a really positive attitude. It was really hard to choose Hot Chocolate Friday today but special congratulations go to Matthew who has set a really great example.

Also, we have PE on Mondays so can children please come to school in their kit and they’ll wear it all day.

Have a lovely, restful weekend everyone and see you on Monday.

Mr Myers
