Suggested Activities 22nd-30th June

Hello Everyone! 

 

It’s nearly Summer holidays! We have prepared special messages for you all, have a look at the videos below! 

We know it has been a very different, busy, and stressful few months. So parents, thank you so much for engaging with home learning, providing feedback, and working with us as a team to ensure the continued progress of all our girls! 

 

This is our last scheme of work before we go on our summer holidays. But please, continue to engage with past activities, practice reading and numbers at home. 

 

You can also complete any workbooks you collected at the book drop on Thursday.

The most important thing is that we are happy and healthy; do not feel under pressure to continue home learning during the summer holidays. Do what you can, when you can. 

 

We know both children and parents have been working extremely hard and deserve a well earned break!  

 

Thank you again for you’re continued support during these difficult times and we look forward to seeing you all back in school when we are told it is safe to do so.

Miss Gilroy and Miss Meenagh
