Hi Everyone!

We hope you had a lovely, safe Easter break at home with your family.

This is our fourth week of learning at home and we just want to say another thank you for everything that you are doing. You are all working hard with your adults and it’s great to see some of your work on SeeSaw. Keep it up as we love to see pictures of you! Please read the post for some information on your tasks this week. The weekly planner can be found below and on your SeeSaw. There are also some documents and resources at the bottom of this page that you can download.
