I hope that you’ve enjoyed your week’s rest during the half term break and are feeling refreshed and raring to go during this six-week half term before the longer Easter break. As far as we know, many children will be remaining at home for two more weeks before hopefully being allowed to come back to school. We shall find out more later in the government announcement. In the meantime, we will all need to continue to our best with the current situation that we are dealing with.

Mrs Williams shall be delivering her usual Monday morning worship at 9am today, so here’s the details below. I shall see you at our usual 9:15am Zoom meeting tomorrow.

IT’S THE GRAND FINAL OF THE MASKED SINGER! WHO WILL BE CROWNED CHAMPION?

Today, you are going to finish the half term with a 51 question quiz! All of the questions are based on what you’ve been learning about/producing this half term so it will test your memory, listening and observation skills. Each question gives you 1 minute to answer so there’s plenty of time to think about it. Use the time wisely.

Here’s the timings for when I shall send you the link to play the quiz (Check your class dojo at that time to find the link). We can only have 10 children at a time playing. You will only be allowed to play during the time that is shown below so don’t miss out!
