Some little birdies have told us that lots of you have been helping out at home, baking, practicing a musical instrument, helping to mind your baby brothers and sisters, working on your sports skills, building the most wonderful Lego creations! Well done to you all. Keep it up! For the next two weeks you will be on Easter break. We won't be sending lists of work to do, but if you feel like it, keep going over your tables, practice the spellings you find tricky, write stories, draw pictures, make some Easter art, watch films, and of course - read! Here are some of this weeks superstars! Hello Boys and Girls, I hope you are all well, and enjoying the lovely weather we've been having. Here is your work for this week. It's to last the WHOLE week and bring you up to the Easter Holidays. Do a little bit every day.. Do NOT try to get it all done on one day!
